Abstract:Abstract. The Tibetan Plateau (TP) harbors the largest expanse of glaciers at middle and high latitudes globally. Against the backdrop of ongoing global warming, TP glaciers have experienced widespread retreat and significant mass balance alterations in recent decades, raising questions about their impact on regional climate. In this study, we address this knowledge gap by investigating the magnitude and spatial extent of precipitation responses to glacier changes across the TP using four distinct Weather Rese… Show more
