Snowmelt Timing and Contrasting Vegetation Responses to Compound Dry–Hot Events in Northwest China’s Mountains

Seasonal snow regulates spring water supply and vegetation development, thereby shaping vegetation responses to summer compound dry–hot events. Whether snowmelt timing relative to event onset explains the contrast between peak damage and cumulative deficit remains unresolved. Regional observations from 2006 to 2025 wer...
