Contrasting Effects of Tectonic Faults on Vegetation Growth along the Elevation Gradient in Tectonically Active Mountains

Hongyu Li,
Xiaohuang Liu,
Xiaofeng Zhao
et al.

Abstract: Long-term tectonic movements have shaped the geomorphological features and hydrothermal conditions of mountains, influencing their vegetation growth patterns in both positive and negative ways. However, little is known about the effect of fault development on the spatio-temporal variation in vegetation along the elevation gradient in mountainous regions. To address this issue of montane tectonic ecology, this study selected the tectonically active mid-altitude zone (1000–3500 m) of the Chinese Western Tianshan… Show more
