Abstract

The monsoonal temperate glaciers in China are located in the region of the southeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, and these monsoonal temperate glaciers have obvious response to global change. This study takes "glacier-runoff" system of the Bingchuan River Basin of Hailuogou in Gongga Mountain region as research object, because this area has abundant information and data about glacier change. The research have found two important results: (1) The glaciers in Gongga Mountain have sensitive response to global warming since the early of the 20th century, based on glacier-variation data and mass balance data over the past 100 years; (2) glacial runoff has also sensitively corresponded to global warming since the 1980s, as indicated by observed hydrological and climatic data. In conclusion, there is a "glacier-runoff-global change" organism in monsoonal temperate glacier region of China, therefore, "glacier-runoff" system is very sensitive to global change. And what’s more, the result indicated that global changing is the main cause of glaciers retreat, glaciers ablation and runoff rise.
