Abstract

The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is an Asian water source and Chinese water tower. The area has a large amount of water resources and great potential for hydropower development. However, there are problems such as unreasonable use, retreat of glaciers and pollution of the water environment. Water is a precious resource. The sustainable development of water resources in the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has significant ecological and strategic significance for the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and its surrounding areas. Therefore, this article will explore the status quo of water resources systems in the process of sustainable development in the Tibetan Plateau and provide some suggestions.
