英文摘要 | In high elevation cold regions of the Tibetan Plateau, suspended sediment transfer from glacier meltwater erosion is one of the important hydrological components. The Zhadang glacier is a typical valley-type glacier in the Nyainqentanglha Mountains on the Tibetan Plateau. To make frequent and long period records of meltwater runoff and sediment processes in the very high elevation and isolated regions, an automatic system was installed near the glacier snout (5400m a.s.l) in August 2013, to measure the transient discharge and sediment processes at 5-min interval, which is shorter than the time span for the water flow to traverse the catchment from the farthest end to the watershed outlet. Diurnal variations of discharge, and suspended sediment concentration (SSC) were recorded at high frequency for the Zhadang glacier, before suspended sediment load (SSL) was computed. Hourly SSC varied from the range of 0.2kg/m(3) to 0.5kg/m(3) (at 8:00-9:00) to the range of 2.0kg/m(3) to 4.0kg/m(3) (at 17:00-18:00). The daily SSL was 32.24t during the intense ablation period. Hourly SSC was linearly correlated with discharge (r=0.885**, n=18, p<0.01). A digit-eight hysteresis loop was observed for the sediment transport in the glacier area. Air temperature fluctuations influence discharge, and then result in the sediment variations. The results of this study provide insight into the responses of suspended sediment delivery processes with a high frequency data in the high elevation cold regions.
