Impact of vegetation greening on runoff under climate change in the Yarlung Tsangpo-Brahmaputra River basin

Key Points

• Runoff is significantly influenced by increased vegetation greening, affecting water flow dynamics.
• Vegetation greening showed a considerable impact on runoff levels under varying climate scenarios over recent decades.
• Analysis of hydrological data from the Yarlung Tsangpo-Brahmaputra River basin demonstrates these changes clearly.
• Findings highlight the need for integrated water management strategies in the context of climate change.
