Abstract:Based on 360 event-based precipitation samples collected at six stations on the North Tibetan Plateau (NTP) in 2019–2020, we analyzed the influence of meteorological parameters, sub-cloud evaporation, moisture sources, and moisture transmission pathways on precipitation and its seasonal variations. The results show that precipitation δ18O, δ2H, and d-excess values show obvious seasonal variations, being depleted in winter and enriched in summer. Although temperature is an important variable that affects the ch… Show more
