Drought and Wetness Variability and the Respective Contribution of Temperature and Precipitation in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau by Lele Zhang, Liming Gao

“…Quantifying drought and wetness fluctuations is of great significance to the regional ecological environment and water resource security, especially in the fragile Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP). In this paper, the standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index (SPEI) was calculated based on the observed data and China Meteorological Forcing Dataset (CMFD) in the QTP for the period of 1979–2015, and the drought and wetness evolution based on the SPEI series and respective contribution of temperature and precipitation were also analyzed. …”

DATA⁃DRIVEN RELIABILITY ANALYSIS MODEL OF QINGHAI⁃TIBET RAILWAY IN PERMAFROST ZONE by WANG JinBo, TANG JiaYin, LIU XinLing, WU Yi

“…To ensure the safety of train operation in the plateau permafrost region of the Golmud⁃Lhasa section of the Qinghai Tibet Railway Phase II project,based on the original time series elevation data of railway subgrade in permafrost region,the product season model under various subgrade types is established to fit the uneven settlement degradation trajectory of subgrade and effectively predicted elevation values with confidence intervals.The differential operation was used to analyze the subgrade settlement degradation values.The failure time extrapolation method was used to complete the reliability evaluation,and the settlement threshold was set based on driving safety.The simulation results show that it can accurately forecast permafrost thawing degradation,and the research findings can be used by the logistics support department to conduct daily subgrade maintenance.…”

Dynamic Assessment of Agricultural Drought Risk in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau from 2000 to 2018 by LIU Guonie, LIANG Yuanyuan, QIU Yue, XIA Jingxia, DING Mengyao, SUN Peng

“…In the context of global warming and climate change,drought poses a serious threat to agricultural production.The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is a “sensor” and “sensitive area” of climate change.Researching the agricultural drought risk of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is conducive to drought prevention planning of the area and improving the ability to resist drought.A risk assessment model is developed for agricultural droughts on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in light of regional disaster system theory,which is employed to investigate the hazard,exposure,vulnerability and spatiotemporal features of agricultural droughts therein.Moreover,the paper regionalizes the risk grade at a county level.The results show the followings:① The hazard of agricultural drought risk on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau presents a “high-low-high” distribution from southeast to northwest,and the southeastern region shows an increasing trend.Wheat and highland barley in the eastern and southeastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are at a high agricultural drought risk from July to September.Forages in the northern region are at a high agricultural drought risk from April to August.② The regional difference of agricultural drought exposure in Tibet Plateau is small.The exposure shows an increasing trend in the east and northwest while a decreasing trend in the central and west.③ The agricultural drought vulnerability of 98.79% of the counties and cities is decreasing,which passes the significance test at the confidence level of 99%.④ The southeastern and northern regions of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau witness a high agricultural drought risk and an increasing trend of it.…”
