摘要

Due to water conflicts and allocation in the Lancang-Mekong River Basin (LMRB), the spatio-temporal differentiation of total water resources and the natural-human influence need to be clarified. This work investigated LMRB’s terrestrial water storage anomaly (TWSA) and its spatio-temporal dynamics during 2002–2020. Considering the effects of natural factors and human activities, the respective contributions of climate variability and human activities to terrestrial water storage change (TWSC) were separated. Results showed that: (1) LMRB’s TWSA decreased by 0.3158 cm/a. (2) TWSA showed a gradual increase in distribution from southwest of MRB to middle LMRB and from northeast of LRB to middle LMRB. TWSA positively changed in Myanmar while slightly changed in Laos and China. It negatively changed in Vietnam, Thailand and Cambodia. (3) TWSA components decreased in a descending order of soil moisture, groundwater and precipitation. (4) Natural factors had a substantial and spatial differentiated influence on TWSA over the LMRB. (5) Climate variability contributed 79% of TWSC in the LMRB while human activities contributed 21% with an increasing impact after 2008. The TWSC of upstream basin countries was found to be controlled by climate variability while Vietnam and Cambodia’s TWSC has been controlled by human activities since 2012.
