Abstract: As one of the five most important spheres of the climate system globally,cryosphere is an important water source and solid water reservoir in cold and arid regions of China,which exerts crucial impacts on ecology,water,environment and climate.For a long time,there has been inadequate research on product and service functions of cryosphere,let along the targeted regionalization of cryosphere water resource function in arid region from the perspective of major function regionalization.Water resource is one of the most direct service functions of cryosphere and can be the important breakthrough of the research of service function in cryosphere.Based on interdisciplinary theory and method of cryosphere science,human geography,ecology and other subjects,this paper reviewed the existed scientific researches around three main aspects:(1) the distribution and monitoring of water resource. (2) function oriented regionalization. (3) the classification and evaluation of water resources service.Also,this paper put forward the cryosphere water resource service function classification system based on the evaluation of ecosystem service function and the division of the ecological-production-living space.Furthermore,on the basis of characteristics of cryosphere water resource,supply capacity,socio-economic development water demand and water resource utilization efficiency,this paper constructed the evaluation index system for cryosphere water resource service function.Finally,colligating the practice of comprehensive physiographic regionalization,comprehensive human geography regionalization,ecological function regionalization,major function oriented zoning and others related researches,this paper brought forward a feasible plan for cryosphere water resource service function regionalization,which provides a theoretical and practical basis for the future research of regionalization of cryosphere service function in China and the whole world.

Key words: cryosphere, water resource service function, function oriented regionalization, literature review
