Overview

Observational analysis quantifies runoff generation in alpine vegetation types, highlighting key hydrological processes.

Key Points

  • Runoff generation was significantly influenced by the soil freeze-thaw process across different vegetation types.
  • The SHAW model simulated soil hydrothermal dynamics accurately, achieving NSE > 0.80 for temperature and NSE > 0.69 for moisture.
  • Major water fluxes were observed during thawing stages, primarily driven by evapotranspiration contributing to water balance.
  • Deep seepage from the shrub meadow was identified as a major contributor to streamflow recharge in the region.
