Summary: | As a climate-sensitive and fragile region, how the Tibetan Plateau (TP) responds to global warming would have significant implications for its ecological environment and sustainable socio-economic development. A crucial tool for assessing fine-scale climate impacts is the NEX-GDDP-CMIP6 dataset. This study utilized the NEX-GDDP-CMIP6 dataset to determine changes in extreme temperature and precipitation indices under different Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP) relative to the baseline warming by 1.5 °C, 2 °C, and 3 °C. By using the Theil-Sen median trend and Mann-Kendall test methods, the research concluded that warming trends and increased humidity were on an upward trend. These changes led to amplified fluctuations in the frequency, intensity, and duration of multiple extreme indices. |
