叶尔羌河中的jökulhlaups通常是由冰川阻塞的湖泊通过快速扩张的冰下通道突然排水造成的。这些湖泊由位于Keleqin（Shaksgam）河上游的Keyajir（Kyagar）冰川和Telamukanli（Singye）冰川筑坝。近年来，冰川变得越来越薄，冰川阻塞的湖泊及其爆发也变得越来越小。
The jökulhlaups in the Yarkant (Yarkand) River are usually caused by the sudden drainage of glacier-dammed lakes through rapidly expanding subglacial channels. The lakes are dammed by Keyajir (Kyagar) Glacier and Telamukanli (Singye) Glacier which are situated in the upper reaches of the Keleqin (Shaksgam) River. In recent years the glaciers have become thinner, and the glacier-dammed lakes and their outbursts have become smaller.
