Research Progress on Ecohydrological Processes in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau Under Climate Change
The Qinghai-Xizang Plateau stands as a sensitive and fragile zone in terms of global climate change,and its eco-hydrological processes respond swiftly to climatic shifts.Investigating the eco-hydrological processes of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau offers deeper insights into the mechanisms and patterns of global climate change,providing a scientific basis for protecting the plateau's ecological environment,promoting regional sustainable de-velopment,and addressing global climate change challenges.Utilizing various online search engines,this paper conducted a literature search and review using keywords such as"Qinghai-Xizang Plateau,""climate change,"and"ecosystem".It introduces the climate change trends in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau,summarizes the alterations in its eco-hydrological processes and the driving factors behind these changes and categorizes the eco-hydrological simulation study of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau.The findings reveal that:①The overall climate change trend in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau is towards a warmer and wetter climate,leading to varying degrees of degradation in snow cover,glaciers,and permafrost;②Under climate change,eco-hydrological processes in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau exhibit significant spatial and temporal variations,with temperature and precipitation as the main driving factors,and snow,glaciers,and frozen soil as potential driving factors;③ Most of the existing eco-hydrological models applied to the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau are modifications of traditional models,improved by coupling with permafrost freeze-thaw models.In future research,attention should be paid to the integration and sharing of eco-hydrological data in the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau,exploring the potential impacts of changes in snow,glaciers,and frozen soil on the eco-hydrological processes of the plateau,and establishing a more comprehensive coupled mod-el of frozen soil water and heat to improve the simulation ability of eco-hydrological processes in the Qinghai-Xi-zang Plateau.
