Lake-air interaction plays important roles in the water and energy balances of the hydroclimatic systems at multiscale (Sharma et al., 2018), especially over the lake-rich regions such as the Tibetan Plateau (TP), which has the highest alpine lake concentration in the world (Zhang, 2018). The total number and surface area of the lake clusters distributed across TP exceed 1,200 and 47,000 km 2 , respectively (Ma et al., 2011;. The presence of such a large amount of endorheic lakes exerts significant impacts on the regional weather and climate through influencing the lake-air turbulent fluxes and the atmospheric boundary structure (Biermann et al., 2014). Additionally, most TP lakes are undergoing rapid expansion
