Abstract Wetland is an important part of global carbon cycle. As the largest wetland in China, the Tibetan Plateau is a hotspot in the research on wetland carbon cycle. In this paper, the authors evaluated the effect of gas hydrate exploration on wetland carbon cycle in Muli Basin, Qilian Mountain, the Tibetan Plateau. By using geochemical methods such as top gas and acidolysis hydrocarbon, the authors measured the values of the acidolysis hydrocarbon in 2009, 2011, 2013, which were 15.55 μL/kg, 13.73 μL/kg, and 12.82 μL/kg respectively, with no significant increase. The top gas in 2009, 2011, 2013 were 4.49 μL/L, 6.16 μL/L, and 19.22 μL/L respectively, showing increasing trend. The distribution characteristics analysis shows that top gas has short time efficiency, and can not be used to indicate the increase of hydrocarbon gas. The results show that the effect of gas hydrate wells has the features of wide range and low strength on regional carbon cycle system. The environment impact is less and in the controllable range.
