The performance of Earth System Model Version 2 of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS-ESM2) in simulating the evapotranspiration over the Tibetan Plateau was evaluated using the GLEAM dataset, i.e., Global Land Surface Evaporation: the Amsterdam Methodology Version 3.3a. Then, the projected future changes of evapotranspiration and relevant meteorological variables over the Tibetan Plateau using CAS-ESM2 were also been presented. The results show that CAS-ESM2 can reasonably reproduce the observed geographical distribution and seasonal cycle of evapotranspiration over the Tibetan Plateau. CAS-ESM2 can also reproduce the increasing trend of evapotranspiration during 1981-2014 over the plateau, but with relatively weaker magnitudes. Based on the CAS-ESM2 projection results under four different Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP) scenarios,
