Nepal, a Himalayan country, is often chosen by global scientists to study climate change and
its impact on the Himalayan environment. The changes in temperature, precipitation …

Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are a great concern for the Himalaya, as they can
severely damage downstream populations and infrastructures. These floods originate at …

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 …

Assessing the extent to which glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are increasing in
frequency in modern times and whether their incidence is driven by anthropogenic climate …

Glacial lakes are a sensitive indicator of regional climate change and one of the initiators of
glacier disasters. It is of great significance to understand the spatial distribution and change …

Due to climate change, the future Glacial Lake Outburst Flood (GLOF) risk is more likely in
the Himalayas. Despite several GLOF studies, little attention has been given to the …

Risk assessments for potential glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are primarily focused on
large, rapidly expanding lakes. However, the mechanism of cascading hazards that cause …

A glacial lake outburst flood (GLOF) is a typical glacier-related hazard in high mountain
regions. In recent decades, glacial lakes in the Himalayas have expanded rapidly due to …

Introduction As a vital component within glacier systems, the occurrences of glacial lake
disasters in high mountain regions have progressively emerged as one of the most …
