China-Qinghai Hoh Xil

Qinghai Hoh Xil, located in the northeastern extremity of the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, is the largest and highest plateau in the world. This extensive area of alpine mountains and steppe systems is situated more than 4,500 m above sea level, where sub-zero average temperatures prevail all year-round. The site’s geographical and climatic conditions have nurtured a unique biodiversity. More than one third of the plant species, and all the herbivorous mammals are endemic to the plateau. The property secures the complete migratory route of the Tibetan antelope, one of the endangered large mammals that are endemic to the plateau.

  1. I’d been trying to wrap my head around the whole GSA process and came across this page while doing some research. What really helped me was how clearly they explained GSA contract terms — no confusing jargon, just straight-up useful info. It gave me the confidence to finally take the next step in applying, and I’m already in talks with their team about getting listed. If you’re stuck like I was, this is a great place to start.
