Abstract Droughts, which are characterized by multiple dimensions including frequency, duration, severity, and onset timing, can impact tree stem radial growth profoundly. Different of drought influence independently or jointly, makes the development accurate predictions a formidable challenge. Measurement‐based tree‐ring data have obvious advantages for studying responses trees. Here, we explored use abundant records quantifying regional response patterns to key drought. Specifically,...
Abstract The Third Pole experiences accelerated glacier retreating particularly in the eastern‐Himalaya, coinciding with a decrease of monsoon‐precipitation early 21st century. extent to which vanishing abundant maritime glaciers buffer declining precipitation‐runoff remains unclear. Here, state‐of‐the‐art enthalpy‐based distributed cryosphere‐hydrology model and first‐hand hydrometeorology observations at Motuo (latest accessible Chinese county), we carefully examine Yarlung Zangbo basin...
Abstract. Understanding the hydrological processes related to snow in global mountainous regions under climate change is necessary for achieving regional water and food security (e.g., United Nation's Sustainable Development Goals 2 6). However, impacts of future changes on high mountains “Third Pole” are still largely unclear. In this study, we aimed project their hydrology upstream region Salween River (USR) two shared socioeconomic pathway (SSP) scenarios (SSP126 SSP585) using a...
Abstract Upper Brahmaputra (UB) is the largest (∼240,000 km 2 ) river basin of Tibetan Plateau, where hydrological processes are highly sensitive to climate change. However, constrained by difficult access and sparse in situ observations, variations precipitation, glaciers, frozen ground, vegetation across UB remain largely unknown, consequently impacts change on streamflow cannot be accurately assessed. To fill this gap, project aims establish a basinwide, large-scale observational network...
Mountain is called the water towers of world. Due to high sensitivity and vulnerability climate change, more attention paid change resources in mountain regions, where provide for environmental human demands downstream. Mountains glacier, as one most important components terrestrial storage (TWS), effectively regulates stabilizes surface resources. TWS appears be trending below previous ranges recent years, glacier retreating becoming primary cause depletion regions. However, how much...
Abstract Life and civilization in arid regions depend on the availability of freshwater. Arid alpine river basins, where hydrological processes are highly sensitive to rapid warming, act as vital water towers for lowland oases. However, scientific understanding precipitation variability related cryosphere–hydrology is extremely limited because scarcity situ observations. The upper Danghe River basin (UDB; ∼14,000 km 2 ) an westerly dominated northeastern Tibetan Plateau source Dunhuang Oasis...
Abstract Runoff and evapotranspiration (ET) are pivotal constituents of the water, energy, carbon cycles. This research presents a 5-km monthly gridded runoff ET dataset for 1998–2017, encompassing seven headwaters Tibetan Plateau rivers (Yellow, Yangtze, Mekong, Salween, Brahmaputra, Ganges, Indus) (hereinafter TPRED). The was generated using advanced cryosphere-hydrology model WEB-DHM, yielding Nash coefficient ranging from 0.77 to 0.93 when compared observed discharges. findings indicate...
Collecting in situ observations from remote, high mountain rivers presents major challenges, yet real-time, temporal resolution (e.g., daily) discharge data are critical for flood hazard mitigation and river management. In this study, we propose a method estimating daily (RD) based on free, operational remote sensing precipitation (Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM), since 2001). method, an exponential filter was implemented to produce new time series basin-averaged model the lag of...
