AB - Miyun reservoir is a surface water source of the city of Beijing. This paper  explores the relationship between reservoir basin runoff and climate change.  Statistical analyses are employed to analyze the variations in rainfall, air  temperature, and runoff in the reservoir basin. Results show uneven  inter-annual variability in rainfall data series. Air temperature show a  rising trend with 1993 and 1994 being the two significant mutation years.  Runoff has been decreasing over the years. Based one inter-annual analysis,  July and August had the largest runoff. Elastic analysis shows no significant  relationship between rainfall and runoff.
