Study on Response Process and Time Delay Effect of Groundwater Dynamic in Northeastern Margin of Tibetan Plateau

Under the background of drastic global climate change, the evolution law of groundwater resources in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau presents new characteristics, and the groundwater is gradually becoming more complicated, diversified and disordered. In this study, cross-correlation a...

description Under the background of drastic global climate change, the evolution law of groundwater resources in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau presents new characteristics, and the groundwater is gradually becoming more complicated, diversified and disordered. In this study, cross-correlation analysis, wavelet analysis and cross-wavelet transform were used to explore the response mechanism and time delay effect of groundwater, exploitation amount, rainfall and surface runoff in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau. The results show that the groundwater depth increased with the increase in the exploitation amount and decreased with the increase in the rainfall-to-exploitation ration and the surface runoff-to-exploitation ratio from 1980 to 2020. On the annual scale, groundwater, rainfall and surface runoff had a strong cohesiveness period of 12a. On the monthly scale, groundwater lagged behind rainfall and surface runoff for 3 months and 2 months, respectively. The above conclusions provide a scientific theoretical basis for deepening the characteristics of groundwater endowment, the evolution law of water cycle elements and the theory of the hydrological cycle in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau.
