The influences on climate in the Northwest Tibetan Plateau (NwTP) have changed on
millennial to precessional timescales and have been dependent on the size of the Northern …

As the Third Pole of the Earth and the Water Tower of Asia, the Tibetan Plateau (TP) nurtures
large numbers of glacial lakes, which are sensitive to global climate change. These lakes …

Glacier surging is a dynamic instability that affects the flow of some glaciers, modifying the
glacier area, surface velocity, and surface elevation. It is also among the major causes of ice …

Under current global warming, most glaciers on the Tibetan Plateau have shown significant
mass loss during 2000–2019. However, the average glacier mass balance in the western …

The glaciers in northwest China are mainly distributed in the northern part of the Himalayas,
the Kunlun Mountains, and the Tianshan Mountains. Glaciers are an important freshwater …

Glacier surges, a primary factor contributing to various glacial hazards, has long captivated
the attention of the global glaciological community. This study delves into the dynamics of …

Due to climate warming, the glaciers of the Tibetan Plateau have experienced rapid mass
loss and the patterns of glacier changes have exhibited high spatiotemporal heterogeneity …

Abstract The Tibetan Plateau interior basin (ITP) can be regarded as the intermediate zone
between balanced or slight positive mass balance and pronounced mass loss. As an …

Abstract Known as “Asian Water Tower”, the Tibetan Plateau (TP) contains the largest
glacierized area outside the polar regions and contains more than half of China's lakes …

Research into glacial mass change in West Kunlun (WK) has been sufficient, but most of the
existing studies were based on geodetic methods, which are not suitable for specific health …
