This study focused on 57 lakes near the Tanggula Mountains on the southeastern Tibetan Plateau. Yearly inundations of the lakes in 1989\u20132019 and altimeter data available for 2003\u20132020 were integrated to illustrate the changing patterns of glacier-fed and non-glacier-fed lakes. These two groups of lakes presented very similar evolution stages. They both increased in 1989\u20131992, decreased in 1992\u20131996, increased rapidly in 1998\u20132005, and had batch-wise fluctuations since 2005, with respective areas of around 5305.28 and 1636.79 km2 in the last decade. The non-glacier-fed lakes were more sensitive to precipitation variation, and glacier-fed lakes were more sensitive to temperature changes. Based on lakes with obvious changes in water level, the whole water storage variations of the studied lakes were 1.90 Gt\/y in 2003\u20132009, including 1.80 Gt\/y for glacier-fed lakes and 0.10 Gt\/y for non-glacier-fed lakes. The contribution from glacier melting in 2003\u20132009 amounted to 16.11% of the whole lake volume increase. In 2010\u20132020, water mass changes were 0.42 Gt\/y for glacier-fed lakes and \u22120.14 Gt\/y for non-glacier-fed lakes, respectively. The volume increase of glacier-fed lakes in 2010\u20132020 was mainly due to the expansion of Selin Co. Selin Co experienced a water increase of about 0.46 Gt\/y, and the other glacier-fed lakes experienced a decreasing volume of \u22120.04 Gt\/y. In 2010\u20132020, 99.43% of the glacier contribution supplied Selin Co.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs13204024","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,10]],"date-time":"2021-10-10T21:37:49Z","timestamp":1633901869000},"page":"4024","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Comparison of Hydrological Patterns between Glacier-Fed and Non-Glacier-Fed Lakes on the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Fangdi","family":"Sun","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Geography and Remote Sensing, Guangzhou University, Guangzhou 510006, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bin","family":"He","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Guangdong Key Laboratory of Integrated Agro-Environmental Pollution Control and Management, Institute of Eco-Environmental and Soil Sciences, Guangdong Academy of Sciences, Guangzhou 510650, China"},{"name":"National-Regional Joint Engineering Research Center for Soil Pollution Control and Remediation in South China, Guangzhou 510650, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5851-6374","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Caixia","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"State Key Laboratory of Remote Sensing Science, Aerospace Information Research Institute, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yuchao","family":"Zeng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Guangdong Key Laboratory of Integrated Agro-Environmental Pollution Control and Management, Institute of Eco-Environmental and Soil Sciences, Guangdong Academy of Sciences, Guangzhou 510650, China"},{"name":"National-Regional Joint Engineering Research Center for Soil Pollution Control and Remediation in South China, Guangzhou 510650, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2021,10,9]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"393","DOI":"10.1038\/454393a","article-title":"China: The third pole","volume":"454","author":"Qiu","year":"2008","journal-title":"Nat.
