However, knowledge about long-term variations in the surface velocity and mass balance of maritime glaciers remains incomplete due to the lack of representative observations in the southeastern TP. In this study, offset tracking is employed to measure spatiotemporal variation in the surface velocity of the Hailuogou Glacier (HLG) in Mount Gongga of the southeastern TP using Sentinel-1A imagery, while the time series of the HLG mass balance is reconstructed since 1950 by a physically based energy\u2013mass balance model. Our satellite-based results find that HLG surface velocity shows significant spatial heterogeneity with a double-peak pattern along the flow line, and sustained slowdown below the icefall zone has been observed during the past nearly 40 years, although the icefall zone and the area above it have become relatively active. Our modeling indicates a persistent increase in mass loss over the last seven decades with an average rate of \u22120.58 m water equivalent (w.e.) year\u22121, which has accelerated in the past two decades. Sustained slowdown on the glacier is concomitant with pronounced negative mass balance, thereby enhancing glacier wastage in recent decades. The long-term trend in HLG mass loss is mainly driven by an increase in positive air temperature that decreases surface albedo and solid precipitation ratio and increases longwave incoming radiation, besides the influence of supraglacial debris cover. Large-scale atmospheric circulation patterns in the Eurasian region provide important implications for regional-to-local climate variability, unsustainably intensifying the trend of the negative mass balance of the HLG in the southeastern TP in the past two decades.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16030571","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,2]],"date-time":"2024-02-02T09:42:32Z","timestamp":1706866952000},"page":"571","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Multidecadal Changes in the Flow Velocity and Mass Balance of the Hailuogou Glacier in Mount Gongga, Southeastern Tibetan Plateau"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Ju","family":"Gu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Resource, Environment and Safety Engineering, Hunan University of Science and Technology, Xiangtan 411201, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7211-7249","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Yong","family":"Zhang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Resource, Environment and Safety Engineering, Hunan University of Science and Technology, Xiangtan 411201, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xiaowei","family":"Lyu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Physical Education, Hunan University of Science and Technology, Xiangtan 411201, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Huanhuan","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Resource, Environment and Safety Engineering, Hunan University of Science and Technology, Xiangtan 411201, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zongli","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Resource, Environment and Safety Engineering, Hunan University of Science and Technology, Xiangtan 411201, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Xin","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Resource, Environment and Safety Engineering, Hunan University of Science and Technology, Xiangtan 411201, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9472-9342","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Junfeng","family":"Wei","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Resource, Environment and Safety Engineering, Hunan University of Science and Technology, Xiangtan 411201, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,2,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"668","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02886048","article-title":"Estimation on the response of glaciers in China to the global warming in the 21st century","volume":"45","author":"Shi","year":"2000","journal-title":"Chin.
