冰冻圈变化及其影响日益显著并受到广泛关注。系统梳理了目前国际冰冻圈科学研究的主要关注热点, 认为冰冻圈的变化机理、冰冻圈与气候相互作用、冰冻圈变化的影响与适应等构成了国际冰冻圈科学研究的4大科学问题。冰冻圈变化机理是冰冻圈科学研究的基础领域, 冰冻圈与气候相互作用是当前着力加强的重点, 冰冻圈变化的影响日益受到关注, 但研究基础还较薄弱, 冰冻圈变化影响的适应机制是尚处在萌芽状态的研究领域。围绕上述重大科学问题, 紧抓冰冻圈变化过程中的动力响应与时空差异性问题, 气候模式中冰冻圈过程的精细化描述问题, 准确认识影响的时空尺度与程度问题和脆弱性评价方法和指标体系等科学问题, 是寻求科学突破的关键。以全球的视野审视冰冻圈的变化过程, 从有机耦合的角度探讨气候模式中的冰冻圈过程, 以多因素、多过程综合与集成的手段辨析冰冻圈变化的影响, 从方法创新上寻求科学评估冰冻圈变化脆弱性及适应性的突破途径, 是未来研究的重点。

Cryospheric changes and their impacts are receiving wide attention from international scientific and social communities. Here, we summarize the present hotspots of international cryospheric sciences and hence conclude four major aspects of it. They are respectively ① mechanism of cryospheric changes, ② interaction of cryospheric and other spheres of climate/earth system, ③ impacts of cryospheric changes, and ④ adaptation methods and strategy to these changes. Among the four areas, mechanism study is the basis for cryospherc sciences, interaction between different spheres is the currently developing aspect of the field, impacts of cryospheric changes are increasingly studied and yet still have large gaps, while adaptation study is still an iniative nowadays. For the above four aspects, there are key issues for each of them. For instance, dynamic responses and spatial/temporal differences are the key challenges in the mechanism studies. Rational and precise description on physical/chemical/geochemical processes of cryosphere is one of critical issues on improving the climate models. Scoping the spatial/temporal scales, as well as defining the influence degree is the key gaps in studying the cryospheric impacts. Methods and related index system for vulnerability assessment is the key issue in the study of the adaptation strategy of cryospheric impacts. Cryospheric sciences are developing towards, in the near future, the coupling of cryoshperic components into climate system in global scale, detecting the impacts of cryospheric changes using multiple and integrated methodology, and innovated approaches in adaptation.
