摘要
The chemistry of fresh snow samples collected in August and September, 1998 from Mount Everest was studied and compared with other fresh snow samples collected in different seasons in this region. The results indicated that major species in precipitation were very low in late summer in Mount Everest region and may be representative of the background of precipitation chemistry of remote regions in the world. Chemical Characteristics of fresh snow in different seasons had distinct differences and they may reflect different moist source and climatic status. The precipitation in August and September was mainly come from Indian summer monsoon and in April and May it was influenced deeply by the dust of semi-arid and arid regions in central Asia. This indicates the precipitation in this region is climatic sensitively.
