The state of the cryosphere in tropical regions is of great importance because the temperature around the glaciers,permafrost and snow cover always fluctuates near the melting point.These thermal conditions and their high sensitivity to climate change cause the accelerated disappearance of these elements;therefore,it is important to know the climatic factors that regulate them,as well as the physical characteristics of each cryospheric element.Unlike glaciers,permafrost and snow cover have not been widely studied.In recent decades,the study of the glacial and periglacial environment has been carried out in intertropical mountains.However,despite the altitude of their relief and the frequent occurrence of snowfall in tropical high mountains,the conditions that determine such events have been barely analyzed;and in the case of Mexico,the volume of snowfall and its thickness have not been quantified either,as well as their corresponding duration.Consequently,this work is aimed to analyze the temperature and precipitation conditions that determine the snowfall at the higher part of the Nevado de Toluca volcano;at the same time,the conditions of the cryotic climate and their possible implication on the surface are studied.The analysis of data from 1965 to 2016,using frequency statistics,allowed to realize that snowfall occurs with low intensity,its accumulation being less than 10 cm thick and 1o mm of snow water equivalent,which causes the snowpack to stay only a few weeks on average.At the same time,it was determined that there is a significant increase in the number of freeze-thaw cycles.Therefore,due to the climate conditions and their influence on the mountain surface,it is probable that the bedrock is subject to a greater gelifraction dynamics,and the unconsolidated soil surface increases;the combination of the above could cause a greater geomorphological dynamic over time,particularly due to debris flows,and by water and wind erosion of the surface.This work is intended to serve as a reference for the high mountain environment in the intertropical regions.

提出了一种通过偏振模式耦合方式实现分布反馈光纤激光器保偏输出的方法,分布反馈光纤激光器是由刻写在有源光纤上的相移光栅构成的一种窄线宽光源.由于侧面紫外曝光过程造成的光纤极化,这种光纤光栅激光具有线偏振特性,但光路结构一般是由单模光纤构成,因此激光的线偏振特性无法保持.通过监测激光偏振耦合输出功率,可以间接识别激光线偏振方向,将激光线偏振方向和保偏尾纤二次耦合熔接,可以实现窄线宽分布反馈光纤激光的保偏输出.实验得到了偏振消光比大于30 dB,输出稳定线偏振光的分布反馈光纤激光器,且激光效率、线宽、噪声等较原
