The Himalaya plays a vital role in regulating the freshwater availability for nearly a billion
people living in the Indus, Ganga, and Brahmaputra River basins. Due to climate change …

In Himalayas, new glacial lake formation and expansion of existing glacial lakes have
occurred as a consequence of the increasing temperature and glacier recession. These …

This study assessed spatiotemporal changes at Gya Glacier, the associated development of
a proglacial lake, and reconstructed the 2014 outburst flood that struck Gya Village in the …

Limited ground-based surveys and extensive remote sensing analyses have confirmed
glacier thinning in the Garhwal Himalaya. More detailed studies on specific glaciers and the …

Climate change-driven retreat of glaciers is producing thousands of glacial lakes across
mountain regions. These lakes generally grow, coalesce into larger lakes that may produce …

Abstract The Teesta basin in Sikkim Himalaya hosts numerous glacial lakes in the high
altitude glacierized region, including one of the largest and the fastest-growing South …

The destabilization of rock glaciers and permafrost variations is of great importance to the
safety of the population and infrastructure in the Karakoram region because of their effects …

This study describes the morphological and dynamic changes of Parkachik Glacier, Suru
River valley, Ladakh Himalaya, India. We used medium-resolution satellite images; …

Climate warming-induced glacier recession has resulted in the development and rapid
expansion of glacial lakes in the Himalayan region. The increased melting has enhanced …

Investigation of spatiotemporal variation in glacier velocity is imperative to comprehend
glacier mass and volume loss as a function of their sensitivity to climate change. The long …
