The glacier-and snow-fed river basins of the Hindu Kush Himalaya (HKH) mountains
provide water to 1.9 billion people in Asia. The signs of climate change in the HKH …

Snow is a crucial component of the hydrological cycle in the Western Himalaya. Water from
snowmelt is used in various sectors in downstream regions, thus playing a critical role in …

Accurate understanding of snow cover phenology and its changes is important to
hydrological processes and climate system. Having recognized the potential uncertainties in …

Currently, about 12–13% of High Mountain Asia's glacier area is debris-covered, altering its
surface mass balance. However, in regional-scale modelling approaches, debris-covered …

The accurate extreme precipitation simulations of the GCMs during the historical period are
more likely to offer reliable forecasts in the future. In this study, we evaluated the abilities of …

Siloed-approaches may fuel the misguided development of hydropower and subsequent
target-setting under the sustainable development goals (SDGs). While hydropower …

Global hydrological models have become a valuable tool for a range of global impact
studies related to water resources. However, glacier parameterization is often simplistic or …

Study area Three headwater basins of the Tarim River Study focus This study built upon
existing knowledge by incorporating threshold melting temperatures into the Spatial …

Global climate model projections suggest that 21st century climate change will bring
significant drying in the terrestrial midlatitudes. Recent glacier modeling suggests that runoff …

High-Asia glaciers have been observed to be retreating the fastest in the southeastern Tibet
Plateau (SETP), where vast numbers of glaciers and amounts of snow feed the streamflow of …
