  • An Annotated List of Birds Wintering in the Lhasa River Watershed and Yamzho Yumco, Tibet Autonomous Region, China
    FORKTAIL 23 (2007): 1–11 An annotated list of birds wintering in the Lhasa river watershed and Yamzho Yumco, Tibet Autonomous Region, China AARON LANG, MARY ANNE BISHOP and ALEC LE SUEUR The occurrence and distribution of birds in the Lhasa river watershed of Tibet Autonomous Region, People’s Republic of China, is not well documented. Here we report on recent observations of birds made during the winter season (November–March). Combining these observations with earlier records shows that at least 115 species occur in the Lhasa river watershed and adjacent Yamzho Yumco lake during the winter. Of these, at least 88 species appear to occur regularly and 29 species are represented by only a few observations. We recorded 18 species not previously noted during winter. Three species noted from Lhasa in the 1940s, Northern Shoveler Anas clypeata, Solitary Snipe Gallinago solitaria and Red-rumped Swallow Hirundo daurica, were not observed during our study. Black-necked Crane Grus nigricollis (Vulnerable) and Bar-headed Goose Anser indicus are among the more visible species in the agricultural habitats which dominate the valley floors. There is still a great deal to be learned about the winter birds of the region, as evidenced by the number of apparently new records from the last 15 years. INTRODUCTION limited from the late 1940s to the early 1980s. By the late 1980s the first joint ventures with foreign companies were The Lhasa river watershed in Tibet Autonomous Region, initiated and some of the first foreign non-governmental People’s Republic of China, is an important wintering organisations were allowed into Tibet, enabling our own area for a number of migratory and resident bird species.

  • Geothermal Resources and Utilization In
    Presented at the Workshop for Decision Makers on Direct Heating Use of Geothermal Resources in Asia, organized by UNU-GTP, TBLRREM and TBGMED, in Tianjin, China, 11-18 May, 2008. GEOTHERMAL TRAINING PROGRAMME TBLRREM TBGMED GEOTHERMAL RESOURCES AND UTILIZATION IN TIBET AND THE HIMALAYAS Dor Ji Tibet Bureau of Exploration & Development of Geology and Mineral Resources 850000 Lhasa Tibet CHINA [email protected] ABSTRACT Tibet is located in the east section of the Mediterranean-Himalayan Geothermal Zone, one of the world’s greater geothermal zones. Various high temperature geothermal manifestations are distributed throughout Tibet. In Yangbajain and Yangyi etc. 10 geothermal fields have been explored or detailed surveys have been made. The total resource potential is 299 GW. Yangbajain has an installed capacity of 24.18 MWe and has run safely for nearly 30 years. Medium-low temperature geothermal resources are used in greenhouses, baths, for medical care, space heating and industrial washing amongst other aspects. The geothermal resources are suitable for district heating and have great potential. Furthermore, utilization of shallow geothermal energy by means of Geothermal Shallow Heat Pumps (GSHPs) can satisfy the demands for space heating in Lhasa and most other larger towns in Tibet. 1. INTRODUCTION There are abundant geothermal resources in Tibet. More than 600 hot springs are distributed throughout the area. It ranks second place with regards to available geothermal resources in different provinces, regions and cities in our country. In addition Tibet is the area where most of the geothermal manifestations hotter than 100°C are located; In fact nearly half of the total of geothermal manifestations hotter than 100°C, in China, are located in Tibet, and the total reserve of thermal energy ranks first in the country.

ERIA Research Project Report 2014-41, Jakarta: ERIA, pp.57-102. Available at: http://www.eria.org/RPR_FY2014_No.41_Chapter_4.pdf Chapter 4 Case Studies on Sustainable Use of Geothermal Energy 4. Introduction of Chapters 4 and 5 The topics of interest for sustainability of geothermal power generation and direct heat use pointed out in Section 2.5 are summarised below in order of priority (based on input from China, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Japan): 1. Monitoring and reservoir engineering, 2. Reinjection, 3. Anti-scaling, and 4. Anti-corrosion and anti-erosion. For ground source heat pump (GSHP) systems, no common interests were found, but basic hydrogeological data collection and system monitoring were pointed out to be important for the sustainable use of GSHP. On the other hand, in Section 4.1, the importance of international cooperation was pointed out. Therefore, we decided to collect case studies from each member country concerning these topics to find possible solutions for sustainable use of geothermal energy. Thus case studies are presented in the next section. These case studies are compiled and used as a base of the guidelines shown in the following chapters. Although the solutions shown in the following sections and chapters may contribute to the sustainability of geothermal use to some extent, continuous studies are needed for future use.

The aim is to assist developing countries with significant geothermal potential to build up groups of specialists that cover most aspects of geothermal exploration and development. During 1979-2008, 402 scientists and engineers from 43 countries have completed the six month courses. They have come from Asia (44%), Africa (26%), Central America (15%), and Central and Eastern Europe (15%). There is a steady flow of requests from all over the world for the six month training and we can only meet a portion of the requests. Most of the trainees are awarded UNU Fellowships financed by the UNU and the Government of Iceland. Candidates for the six month specialized training must have at least a BSc degree and a minimum of one year practical experience in geothermal work in their home countries prior to the training.

  • A Window Into the Tectonic, Thermal, and Geochemical Evolution of the Lhasa Block, Southern Tibet Jessica L
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 110, B08413, doi:10.1029/2004JB003330, 2005 Nyainqentanglha Shan: A window into the tectonic, thermal, and geochemical evolution of the Lhasa block, southern Tibet Jessica L. D’Andrea Kapp,1 T. Mark Harrison,1,2 Paul Kapp,3 Marty Grove,1 Oscar M. Lovera,1 and Ding Lin4 Received 19 July 2004; revised 28 December 2004; accepted 16 March 2005; published 31 August 2005. [1] In the Nyainqentanglha (NQTL) massif, southern Tibet, a late Cenozoic, SE dipping, normal fault exhumed an oblique section of crust in its footwall. U-Th-Pb dating of zircon and monazite from footwall exposures reveals a collage of felsic intrusions including Cretaceous–early Tertiary and Miocene granitoids. Ages of the latter span >10 m.y., suggesting semicontinuous or episodic Miocene magmatism. Geochemical and isotopic analyses show a Gangdese arc affinity, indicating significant mantle heat and mass transfer in their formation and semicontinuous calc-alkaline magmatism throughout the Cenozoic Indo-Asian collision. The undeformed nature of the footwall Cretaceous and Miocene granitoids suggests that Mesozoic-Cenozoic Lhasa block deformation was ‘‘thin- skinned,’’ being concentrated in supracrustal assemblages. This, coupled with the lack of migmatites exposed in the NQTL, implies the exposed crust was not a partial melt zone nor involved in large-scale channel flow. Some 40Ar/39Ar thermochronologic studies of footwall K-feldspars reveal that samples collected within several kilometers below the normal fault cooled prior to emplacement of young leucogranites, indicating little perturbation of the background thermal structure since 15 Ma. This plus high melting temperatures and the lack of penetrative granitoid deformation requires that the melts formed at lower crustal levels and were emplaced rapidly to the midcrust.
