The 1988 glacial lake outburst flood (GLOF) in Guangxieco Lake is studiedbased on geomorphological evidence, interviews with local residents, fieldsurveys in 1990 and 2007, and satellite images from different years. Thefindings are as follows. (1) The outburst event was caused bytwo major factors, namely, intense pre-precipitation and persistent hightemperatures before the outburst and the low self-stability of the terminalmoraine dam as a result of perennial piping. (2) The GLOF, with the peakdischarge rate of 1270 m<sup>3</sup> s<sup>−1</sup>, evolved along Midui Valley in thefollowing order: sediment-laden flow, viscous debris flow, non-viscousdebris flow, and sediment-laden flood, which was eventually blocked byPalongzangbu River. (3) A comparison between the conditions during theoutburst in 1988 and the present conditions suggests a small possibility ofa future outburst unless drastic changes occur in landscape andclimate. Reconstructing the outburst conditions and the GLOF processes ishelpful in assessing a potential outburst in glacier lakes in Tibet
