Abstract The Tibetan Plateau (TP) impacts local and remote atmospheric circulations,
wherein it mechanically and thermally affects air masses or airflows. Moreover, the TP …

The wide distribution of natural lakes over the Tibetan Plateau, the highest and largest
plateau on Earth, have received extensive attention due to global warming. In this Review …

The cryosphere (including, snow, glaciers, permafrost, lake and river ice) is an integral
element of high mountain regions, which are home to roughly 10% of the global population …

In this first worldwide synthesis of in situ and satellite‐derived lake data, we find that lake
summer surface water temperatures rose rapidly (global mean= 0.34° C decade− 1) …

Abstract The Tibetan Plateau (TP) is undergoing significant warming since the 1950s.
During the past two decades, extensive research has been conducted to investigate the …

No glacial lake census exists for the Third Pole region, which includes the Pamir-Hindu
Kush-Karakoram-Himalayas and the Tibetan Plateau. Therefore, comprehensive information …

Asia's high plateaus are sensitive to climate change and have been experiencing rapid
warming over the past few decades. We found 99 new lakes and extensive lake expansion …

Globally, lake surface water temperatures have warmed rapidly relative to air temperatures,
but changes in deepwater temperatures and vertical thermal structure are still largely …

Indian Himalayas are home to numerous glacial lakes, which can pose serious threat to
downstream communities and lead to catastrophic socioeconomic disasters in case of a …

Lake surface water temperature (LSWT) measurements from various sources illustrate that
lakes are warming in response to climate change. Most previous studies of geographical …
