Rapid expansion of lakes in the endorheic basin on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau since 2000 and its potential drivers

Wenhui Liu et al.

Summary: The lakes in the endorheic basin of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau have been rapidly expanding since 2000, primarily due to increased precipitation and accelerated permafrost degradation. Retreating glaciers play a role in lake growth, but cannot fully explain the expansion observed.

What drives the rapid water-level recovery of the largest lake (Qinghai Lake) of China over the past half century?

Chenyu Fan et al.

Summary: In recent years, Qinghai Lake has seen a rapid recovery in water levels, mainly due to substantial increases in key wet years. The water level changes are correlated with annual precipitation rather than temperature and evaporation. Atmospheric water vapor in the Qinghai Lake basin is primarily transported from the west and southwest to the east.

Refined estimation of lake water level and storage changes on the Tibetan Plateau from ICESat/ICESat-2

Shuangxiao Luo et al.

Summary: Lakes on the Tibetan Plateau act as sensitive indicators of climate change with an average water level change rate of 0.20 meters per year and a total water storage change of 11.51 gigatons per year from 2003 to 2019. The variation in water level change rates in different regions of the plateau suggests accelerated rises in the north and deceleration in the south may be linked to differing water vapor transport patterns.

Interannual Variation in the Area and Water Volume of Lakes in Different Regions of the Tibet Plateau and Their Responses to Climate Change

Shuyu Pang et al.

Summary: This study used remote sensing satellite images and digital elevation models to analyze the changes in area and volume of 20 lakes in different periods in the Tibet Plateau, revealing the impact of climate change and glacier meltwater on these changes. The results show that the water volume changes of lakes in different areas are influenced by factors such as precipitation and temperature, showing different trends in response.
