中国基利安山脉的降雨主要是横向流动的,由于地形的缘故,山谷储存了更多的水,影响了高山水的管理。 Rainfall in China’s Qilian Mountains mainly flows laterally, with valleys storing more water due to terrain, affecting alpine water management.

中国科学家发现,降雨是基利安山脉土壤湿度变化的驱动因素,山谷地区由于横向水流而蓄水量增加,表明它们是自然水收集区。 Chinese scientists have found that rainfall drives soil moisture changes on the Qilian Mountains, with valley areas storing more water due to lateral flow, indicating they act as natural water collection zones. 利用不同坡度的15个监测点进行的一项长期研究显示,受地形、植被和微气候的影响,水分反应的空间和时间差异很大。 A long-term study using 15 monitoring sites across different slopes revealed significant spatial and temporal variability in moisture response, influenced by topography, vegetation, and microclimate. 这项研究在《水文学期刊》上发表,显示大多数雨水横向移动而不是深入土壤,突出表明需要考虑到高山地区在水管理和生态项目方面的小规模地形差异。 The research, published in the Journal of Hydrology, shows most rainwater moves horizontally rather than deep into soil, highlighting the need to account for small-scale terrain differences in water management and ecological projects in alpine regions.
