This study analyzed changes in lakes on the Tibetan Plateau between 2000 and 2011 using Landsat and SRTM data. Over 50 lakes were identified, with 9 lakes in 2000 and 10 lakes in 2011 larger than 50 square km selected for further analysis. The total area change was calculated for these lakes over the two time periods. Elevation was analyzed for individual lakes greater than 50 square km, and volume change was estimated for the largest lake, Selin Co, by summing the elevation differences multiplied by pixel areas.
