Global warming-induced melting and thawing of the cryosphere are severely altering the
volume and timing of water supplied from High Mountain Asia, adversely affecting …

The effects of human activity on geomorphic processes, particularly those related to
denudation/sedimentation, are investigated by reviewing case studies and global …

Rivers originating in High Mountain Asia are crucial lifelines for one-third of the world's
population. These fragile headwaters are now experiencing amplified climate change …

River hydrology and geomorphology are largely influenced by human activities. The
operation of the Three Gorges Dam (TGD), which is the largest global hydropower project …

Abstract The Three Gorges Dam (TGD), on the upper valley of the Yangtze River, China, is
the largest water conservancy and power generation project in the world. Problematic …

Understanding the mechanisms controlling downstream water‐level variations after the
operation of the Three Gorges Dam is important for riverine flood and drought management …

The construction of cascade reservoirs upstream of the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) has
been greatly intensified in the 21st century. While research attention is dedicated to the …

The long‐term effects of increased temperatures on sediment fluxes in cold regions remain
poorly investigated. Here, we examined the multidecadal changes in runoff and sediment …

Stratified structures are basic physical characteristics of lakes and reservoirs, which play
important roles in vertical convection and mixing processes. Global warming is expected to …

Impacts of climatic variations and human activities on water discharge in the lower streams
of dammed rivers have been widely studied due to the rich water resources and hydropower …
