An earthquake-triggered avalanche in Nepal in 2015 was exacerbated by climate variability and snowfall anomalies
Abstract On 25 April 2015, the Gorkha earthquake triggered a large rock-ice avalanche and
an air blast disaster in the Langtang Valley, Nepal. More than 350 people were killed or left …

[HTML][HTML] Sub-seasonal variability of supraglacial ice cliff melt rates and associated processes from time-lapse photogrammetry
Melt from supraglacial ice cliffs is an important contributor to the mass loss of debris-covered
glaciers. However, ice cliff contribution is difficult to quantify as they are highly dynamic …

Hydrological regimes and evaporative flux partitioning at the climatic ends of high mountain Asia
High elevation headwater catchments are complex hydrological systems that seasonally
buffer water and release it in the form of snow and ice melt, modulating downstream runoff …
