The Tibetan Plateau(TP)exerts a profound influence on global climate over million-year timescales due to its past uplift.However,whether the ongoing climate changes over the TP,particularly the persistent reduction in its local albedo(referred to as"TP surface darkening"),can exert global impacts remains elu-sive.In this study,a state-of-the-art coupled land-atmosphere global climate model has been employed to scrutinize the impact of TP darkening on polar climate changes.Results indicate that the projected TP darkening has the potential to generate a stationary Rossby wave train,thereby modulating the atmo-spheric circulation in the high-latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere and instigating a dipole-like surface air temperature anomaly pattern around the Arctic region.An additional experiment suggests that the projected Arctic warming may in return warm the TP,thus forming a bi-directional linkage between these two climate systems.Given their association with vast ice reservoirs,the elucidation of this mech-anism in our study is crucial in advancing our comprehension of Earth system climate projections.
