It is important to evaluate the contributions of climate change and human activities to water suitability in the Tao＇er River area. From the perspective of water and heat balance, the water suitability index （Cr） was used to analyze the water suitability of the upper and middle reaches of the river. The nonparametric Mann-Kendall, moving t-test and cumulative anomaly methods were used to detect abrupt changes in Taonan station runoff from 1961 to 2012. Three inflexion years were detected.

In order to estimate the impacts of climate change and human activities on runoff, the slope change ratio of cumulative quan- tity （SCRCQ） was adopted. Finally, the contribution of climate change and human activity to Cr was transformed from the contribution of climate change and human activity to runoff by the sensitivity coefficient method and SCIRCQ method. The results showed that the water suitability index （cr） had a decreasing trend 1961-2012. Fac- tors influencing cr, such as net radiation and runoff, also exhibited a decreasing trend, while precipitation exhibited an increasing trend over the past 52 years. The trends of Cr, net radiation and runoff were obvious, which passed the Mann-kendall test of significance at a=0.05. Human activities were the main factors that affected runoff, al- though the degree of impact was different at different times.
