Abstract Exploring the early warning signals of plant and soil characteristics in response to degradation is of great theoretical significance to illuminate the underlying driving mechanism of alpine meadow degradation. Here, in alpine meadow of Damxung County on the Tibetan Plateau, a field survey along degradation gradients was conducted to measure plant and soil properties: from non-degradation to severely degradation, simultaneous impairments in plant total biomass, plant coverage, plant N concentration, soil moisture, soil total C and N were detected, which significantly (P
