Early warning system for ice collapses and river blockages in the Sedongpu Valley, southeastern Tibetan Plateau [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
The Tibetan Plateau and its surroundings have recently experienced several catastrophic glacier-related disasters. It is of great scientific and practical significance to establish ground-based early warning systems (EWSs) to understand the processes and

Inverse altitude effect disputes the theoretical foundation of stable isotope paleoaltimetry

Nature Communications, 2022
The “inverse altitude effect” (IEA) directly contradicts the basic theory of stable isotope paleoaltimetry. This study explores the causes of the IAE from an atmospheric circulation perspective using δD in water vapor on the global scale.

Magnetic Proxy of Eurasian Loess Revealing Enhanced Physical Erosion Since the Mid‐Pleistocene Transition

Geophysical Research Letters, 2023
Eolian loess deposits contain valuable information about past climate changes and erosion history in dust source regions. In contrast to the extensive investigations of paleoclimatic implications of Eurasian loess, continental erosion information in the ...

Decadal Changes in Glacier Area, Surface Elevation and Mass Balance for 2000–2020 in the Eastern Tanggula Mountains Using Optical Images and TanDEM-X Radar Data

Remote Sensing, 2022
The response of lake-terminating glaciers to climate change is complex, and their rapid changes are often closely linked to glacial-lake outburst floods. However, the eastern Tanggula Mountains, which are the only area where lake-terminating glaciers are

The ERA5-Land soil temperature bias in permafrost regions [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2020
ERA5-Land (ERA5L) is a reanalysis product derived by running the land component of ERA5 at increased resolution. This study evaluates ERA5L soil temperature in permafrost regions based on observations and published permafrost products. We find that ERA5L
