Significant greening in the western Tibetan Plateau and surroundings occurred after the 1970s by Renhui Huang, Chunmei Ma, Wangbin Zhang, Xiaoqian Liu, Shuangye Wu, Hongxi Pang, Shugui Hou

“…We found that the 3-year total pollen accumulation rate (TPAR3a) is a good indicator of vegetation coverage of the source region, and our data showed that the greening of the western TP and surroundings began as early as 1935 AD, mostly due to regional warming and moistening. The greening trend became more significant after the 1970s, which is mostly related to the significant increase in temperature.…”
