As the “Water Tower of Asia” and “The Third Pole” world, Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) shows great sensitivity to global climate change, change in its terrestrial water storage has become a focus attention globally. Differences multi-source data different calculation methods have caused uncertainty accurate estimation storage. In this study, Yarlung Zangbo River Basin (YZRB), located southeast QT...

Surface air temperature is a critical element in the surface–atmosphere interaction, energy exchange, and water cycle. Multi-source fusion reanalysis products (hereafter referred to as reanalysis) have spatiotemporal continuity broad applicability that can provide key data support for various studies such glacier melting, soil freeze-thaw desertification, ecosystem, climate change alpine region...

      Aridity as a spatial concept and drought as a temporal concept have always been studied in different aspects as two distinct categories. However, both concepts indicate anomalies from normal condition. Several indices have been introduced to examine each of these concepts using one or more hydrological cycle’s components. Meanwhile, soil moisture and changes in its spatial and temporal va...

Assessing the impacts of human activities on variations in terrestrial water storage (TWS) is essential for resource management, particularly regions like Aral Sea Basin which suffers from severe scarcity. In this study, TWS anomalies (TWSA) during period April 2002 to June 2017 were analyzed using Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) data Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS)...
