The Himalayan region is experiencing a heightened risk in downstream habitats due to the
effects of climate change, which include rapid glacier recession, the formation of glacial …

A proper estimate of glacier stored water is helpful to assess the long-term availability of
water in any river basin. A method based on the laminar flow and volume–area scaling is …

In situ experiments were conducted to determine the net ecosystem production (NEP) in
cryoconite holes from the surface of two glaciers (Patsio glacier and Chhota Shigri glacier) in …

Himalayan glaciers encompass the highest concentration of ice reserves outside the polar
regions. However, the quantitative estimates of ice volume in this vast mountain range are …

Delineation of Glaciers is a challenging task in the Himalaya due to its complex topography,
cloud cover, seasonal snow cover, hillshade, debris cover. Glacio-hydrological studies …

Tourism fuelled economic transformation of Ladakh region is bringing a change in
demography and livelihood preferences leading to increased exploitation of scarce natural …

The polar ice sheet is vital for the global climate system, influencing the Antarctic ice sheet's
mass balance, sea level rise, and Earth's surface energy. Accurate measurement of its …
