摘要
据中国冰川目录和天山南北树木年轮年表恢复近500年的气候要素我国天山现代冰川8900条,面积9192.43km^2,冰储量1010.5km^3,主要分布在天山西部5000m以上的高山地带。近30年的天山冰川考察及29年乌鲁木齐河源1号冰川物质平衡:观测资料分析表明,中国天山现代冰川普遍处于退缩阶段。预计2000年气候将出现降水偏多的趋势。
According to the latest inventory of glaciers, there are 8900modern glaciers in the Chinese portion of the Tianshan Mountainswith a total area of 9192.43km^2 and a total ice volume of 1010.5km^3.These glaciers are mainly distributed over large and high mounta-ins above 5000m a.s.l in the western part of the mountains. East-ward, the number and the size of glaciers decrease. Investigationand the successive fixed-position observations on Glacier No.1 atthe headwater of the Urumqi River both show that the modern gl- acier are generally in the stage of retreating.Dendrochronologicalanalysis indicate that glaciers in the Tianshan Mountains are inthe third dry-and-warm cycle since the Little Ice Age,i.e. theglaciers are now in the state of retreating.And prospectively, theclimate will tend to increase the precipitation at about year 2000.
