Acting as the “Asian water tower”， the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau （QXP） can significantly influence the East Asian and global climate.This paper introduces some preliminary results of the Strategic Priority Research Program of Chinese Academy of Sciences （Grant No.XDA2006010301）.Focusing on the Pan Third Pole centered by the QXP， the dominant results include： （1） Dust， polluted dust， elevated smoke and polluted continental aerosols are the most important types over the Pan-Third Pole region.Among them， the dust emission and transport can significantly affect the atmospheric thermodynamic structure over the western QXP and the Qaidam Basin.（2） The occurrence frequency of supercooled water clouds and its role in adjusting the energy budget are greater than those of warm water clouds over the QXP.Precipitation is mainly produced by ice clouds and mixed phase clouds， especially in warm season.Although the QXP is warming and wetting， the water vapor arriving from outside the QXP could not effectively replenish the surface water storage， the water cycle over the eastern part of the QXP shows a weakening trend， while the one over the western part indicates opposite trend.（3） Due to the black carbon （BC）， a weak South Asian Summer monsoon is induced， leading less water vapor transported from the Indian Ocean to the QXP.Besides， BC addition can induce an intensified East Asian Summer monsoon significantly， consequently， more water vapor is transported from the east of QXP.Overall， due to the BC， the net water vapor is positive over the QXP， implying a net import of water vapor from the surroundings to the QXP.The eastward movement of convective clouds polluted by dusts over the QXP can merge with the local cloud clustering， leading to an intensified precipitation in the Yangtze River Basin and North China.In general， aerosols can directly affect radiation， or indirectly change the macro and micro characteristics of clouds by acting as cloud condensation nuclei， or by affecting the thermal structure required for cloud formation， thereby further affecting the surface energy budget and atmospheric heating rate profile of QXP.And ultimately affect the circulation system and the water vapor budget of the plateau.Being some parts of the program， the research on above results is beneficial to reveal the physical mechanism of the QXP influencing the surrounding water cycle， to understand the mechanism of aerosol-cloud-interaction affecting the water cycle of TP.Additionally， it may provide some evidence and guidance for the improvement of the efficiency of air water resources development and utilization.
