Abstract: An objective dataset of the Tibetan Plateau vortexes (TPV) from 1979 to 2013 is obtained from the ERA-Interim reanalysis dataset using an objective identifying and tracking method and the objective method to determine the vortexes warm/cold characteristics. The TPV's frequency, intensity, lifetime, initial and the dissipation location outgoing from the Tibetan Plateau are analyzed using this TPV dataset. The vortexes activities over the Tibetan Plateau are mainly TPVs which formed about 53 per year, and averagely 6.7 TPVs move out of the plateau. The TPVs' duration decreases exponentially with their frequencies of occurrence, with the frequency distributions of TPVs' intensity and warm/cold characteristics showed a normal distribution, in which about 81% of the primary TPVs appears with the warm eddy. Most of the TPVs (esp. ones with stronger intensity) occur in the Tibetan Plateau's rainy season which is from May to September. Most of TPVs are initially located in the eastern Nagqu and northern Ngari of the Tibet Autonomous Region, and dissipated near the Danggula Mountains and the Dangqu River Basin of western Qinghai Province that is located east of the TPVs initial locations. The TPVs dissipation locations indicate that the dissipation of the TPVs may be impacted by the Tibetan Plateau terrain. In recent 35 years, the TPVs occurrence frequency was decreasing with an insignificantly trend (-2 /(10 a)), and both the outgoing TPVs number (-1.4 /(10 a)) and TPVs' outgoing rate (-2.3%/(10 a)) decreased significantly.
