Abstract

In China, Hengduan mountains are the most southeastern region where distribute existing glaciers and also the particular features of the alpine and marine time glaciers in the middle-low latitude region.Based on the analysis of hydrochemistry, trace impurity elements and tritium contents of the snow, ice and water specimens collected from the glacier system in this area, this paper has discussed the content and concentration degree of chemical elements in the glacier water, geochemical features of distribution of elements in hydrological processes and its relationship with the environment.here is an important significance for the geochemical background of glaciers and characteristics of ice-snow resources by these researches.
