a Lakes, glaciers, and major river basins in the TP. Spatial distribution of the multi-year trend of b temperature and c snow water equivalent (SWE) for the period 1979–2022, respectively. d Intra-annual variations in mean SWE (left y-axis, orange) and 44-year cumulative changes in monthly SWE (right y-axis, green), with error bars representing the standard deviation of SWE for each month during 1979–2022. Filled bars indicate statistically significant (p < 0.05) results.
