Abstract Mt. Everest (Qomolangma or Sagarmatha), the highest mount on Earth and located
in the central Himalayas between China and Nepal, is characterized by highly concentrated …

The Himalayas, which include delicate and unspoiled ecosystems, have the third-largest
glacier ice store in the world. Recent research reveals that anthropogenic and natural factors …

To quantitatively evaluate the effect of carbonaceous aerosols on the south edge of the
Tibetan Plateau, aerosol samples were collected weekly from August 2009 to July 2010 at …

This synthesis report summarises the most up-to-date knowledge from scientific enquiries
into the impacts of climate change in the Hindu Kush-Himalayan (HKH) region. When the …

A continuous measurement for black carbon (hereafter" BC") in a 40 m shallow ice core
retrieved from the East Rongbuk Glacier (hereafter" ERG") in the northeast saddle of Mt …

We report chemical composition data for PM 10 and PM 1 from the Nepal Climate
Observatory-Pyramid (NCO-P), the world's highest aerosol observatory, located at 5079 m …

We evaluated the chemical composition of rainwater samples in the Mt. Yulong region,
southeastern Tibetan Plateau. A total of 176 rainwater samples were collected from Lijiang …

This study presents the source apportionment of coarse-mode particulate matter (PM10)
extracted by 3 receptor models (PCA/APCS, UNMIX, and PMF) at semi-urban sites of the …

Since 2000, 18 High Asia glaciers have been surveyed for black carbon (BC) deposition 22
times, and numerous snow samples and ice cores have been collected by researchers …

The chemical composition and size distribution characteristics of atmospheric aerosols have
important effects on the environment, human health and climate change. In this paper, we …
