Currently, the global climate system is complex and ever-changing, with multiple factors
influencing climate change. The Qinghai–Tibet Plateau, known as the “Third Pole” of the …

The Tibetan Plateau (TP) has the largest area of snow in the mid-latitude regions, and is
strongly affected by the climate change. We examine the temporal variability of winter snow …

Snow cover over the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) is a key element of Asian Water Tower. It
is also an important indicator of weather and climate change. Its spatio-temporal changes …

but the unique snow characteristics such as thin snow depth and high frequency of change …

The interdecadal changes in the mechanisms accounting for the interannual variation in
autumn snow cover over the central eastern Tibetan Plateau (TP) are investigated in this …

Changes in snow cover over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) have a significant impact on
agriculture, hydrology, and ecological environment of surrounding areas. This study …

Snow cover is highly sensitive to global climate change and strongly influences the climate
at global and regional scales. Because of limited in situ observations, snow cover dynamics …

Snow change over the Tibetan Plateau may exert a large influence on climate variability in
the surrounding regions. However, the characteristics of snow changes at different time …

Understanding the changes in snow cover is essential for biological and hydrological
processes in the Tibetan Plateau (TP) and its surrounding areas. However, the changes in …
