中新社西宁5月22日电 (记者 李江宁) 《祁连山国家公园青海片区生态气象公报(2023年)》今日在西宁发布，公报显示，该片区的典型冰川面积和冰储量较五年前(2018年)有所缩减，反映出当地冰川退缩趋势加剧。
祁连山国家公园青海片区是亚洲中部的重要生态屏障，也是研究冰川变化的重要区域。根据公报数据，该区域典型冰川的平均面积和冰储量在2023年较2018年减少了约5%。这一缩减趋势与全球气候变化背景下冰川普遍退缩的现象相符。
冰川退缩不仅影响当地生态环境，还对下游河流的水资源分配产生重要影响。专家指出，冰川的减少将可能导致夏季河流水量减少，影响农业生产和水力发电。同时，冰川融水是许多河流的源头，冰川面积的减少将直接影响这些河流的水源补给。
祁连山国家公园管理局表示，将进一步加强冰川监测和保护工作，采取措施减缓冰川退缩的速度，并加大对公众的生态保护宣传教育，提高公众对冰川保护的意识。同时，将结合实际情况，制定更加科学合理的冰川保护规划，以保护这一珍贵自然资源。
随着全球气候变化的持续影响，冰川退缩问题愈发受到国际社会的关注。祁连山国家公园青海片区的冰川变化情况，为研究气候变化对冰川的影响提供了宝贵的数据支持，也为全球冰川保护提供了经验借鉴。

Title: Significant Reduction in Glaciers of Qilian Mountains Calls for Ecological Warnings
Keywords: Glacier Reduction, Qilian Mountains, Qinghai Region

Xining, May 22 (Xinhua) — A report on the ecological and meteorological conditions of the Qilian Mountain National Park in Qinghai Province was released in Xining today. The report shows that the area and volume of ice in typical glaciers in the region have shrunk compared to five years ago (2018), indicating an exacerbated trend of glacier retreat.
The Qilian Mountain National Park in Qinghai Province is an important ecological barrier in central Asia and a key area for studying changes in glaciers. According to the data in the report, the average area and volume of ice in glaciers in the region decreased by about 5% in 2023 compared to 2018. This trend of reduction is consistent with the widespread retreat of glaciers under the background of global climate change.
The retreat of glaciers not only affects the local ecological environment but also has important implications for the allocation of water resources in downstream rivers. Experts note that the reduction in glaciers could lead to a decrease in river water during the summer, affecting agricultural production and hydropower generation. Additionally, glacier meltwater is the source of many rivers, and a reduction in glacier area will directly affect the replenishment of water in these rivers.
The Qilian Mountain National Park Administration stated that it will strengthen monitoring and protection of glaciers, take measures to slow down the rate of retreat, and increase public education on ecological protection to raise awareness of glacier conservation. At the same time, it will formulate more scientific and reasonable plans for glacier protection based on actual conditions, to protect this precious natural resource.
As global climate change continues to affect, the issue of glacier retreat is increasingly attracting the attention of the international community. The changes in glaciers in the Qilian Mountain National Park in Qinghai Province provide valuable data support for studying the impact of climate change on glaciers and offer experience for global glacier protection.
