Response of debris-covered glaciers in the Mount Everest region to recent warming, and implications for outburst flood hazards
In areas of high relief, many glaciers have extensive covers of supraglacial debris in their
ablation zones, which alters both rates and spatial patterns of melting, with important …

Debris-covered glacier systems and associated glacial lake outburst flood hazards: challenges and prospects
Glaciers respond sensitively to climate variability and change, with associated impacts on
meltwater production, sea-level rise and geomorphological hazards. There is a strong …

Impact of a global temperature rise of 1.5 degrees Celsius on Asia's glaciers
Glaciers in the high mountains of Asia (HMA) make a substantial contribution to the water
supply of millions of people,, and they are retreating and losing mass as a result of …

High-resolution monitoring of Himalayan glacier dynamics using unmanned aerial vehicles
Himalayan glacier tongues are commonly debris covered and they are an important source
of melt water. However, they remain relatively unstudied because of the inaccessibility of the …

Reconciling high-altitude precipitation in the upper Indus basin with glacier mass balances and runoff
Mountain ranges in Asia are important water suppliers, especially if downstream climates
are arid, water demands are high and glaciers are abundant. In such basins, the …

Accelerating glacier volume loss on Juneau Icefield driven by hypsometry and melt-accelerating feedbacks
Globally, glaciers and icefields contribute significantly to sea level rise. Here we show that
ice loss from Juneau Icefield, a plateau icefield in Alaska, accelerated after 2005 AD. Rates …

Distributed global debris thickness estimates reveal debris significantly impacts glacier mass balance
Supraglacial debris affects glacier mass balance as a thin layer enhances surface melting,
while a thick layer reduces it. While many glaciers are debris‐covered, global glacier models …
