Analysis of Long-Term Changes in Temperature and Precipitation and Their Relationships with Water Resources in the Qaidam Basin in China
柴达木盆地气温降水的长序列变化及与水资源关系

Global climate change induced by increasing emissions of greenhouse gasses is expected to have a considerable impact on the global hydrologic cycle. Along with global warming, temperature and rainfall varied across China, especially in northwestern China. The Qaidam basin, an important part of northwestern China, is very sensitive to climate change. In this paper, trends in temperature and rainfall in the Qaidam basin were derived by the linear trend analysis and Mann-Kendall trend test based on monthly met...
