Abstract

Analyses of stable (D and ¹⁸O) and radioactive (T) isotopes of different waters were applied to obtain the hydrological information in watersheds with different frozen ground types in the Source Area of the Yellow River, northeastern of Qinghai–Tibet Plateau in 2014 and 2016. Variations of oxygen and hydrogen isotope ratios, statistically higher tritium concentrations and lower water yields in thaw lakes confirm disparate sources of recharges to thaw lakes and other lakes. Thaw lakes at various stages of evolution influence the surface and subsurface water systems differently.
