ABSTRACT Global warming has intensified the atmospheric water cycle, leading to more frequent and severe extreme precipitation events, which are a major driver of rainstorm‐induced flooding. Developing regions such as the China–Pakistan economic corridor (CPEC), spanning highly heterogeneous terrain and climate zones, face elevated risk due to limited ...

Aléas et risques naturels dans le Pamir occidental : du local au global (Natural hazards and risks in Western Pamir : from local to global) [PDF]
Central Pamir is characterized by high energy relief, seasonally contrasted climate and abundant glaciation above 5000 m. Irrigation is a common practice relying on glacial and snowmelt waters.

Re-establishing glacier monitoring in Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan, Central Asia [PDF]
Glacier mass loss is among the clearest indicators of atmospheric warming. The observation of these changes is one of the major objectives of the international climate monitoring strategy developed by the Global Climate Observing System (GCOS).

Trends for snow cover and river flows in the Pamirs (Central Asia)
Abstract. In the often discussed Aral Sea basin (Central Asia), water availability depends essentially on the high mountains located in its eastern part, especially from the Pamir Alay Range where the Vakhsh and Pyandj Rivers, the main tributaries of the Amu Darya River, flow.

Protracted and Progressive Crustal Melting during Continental Collision in the Pamir and Plateau Growth [PDF]
Determining crustal melting in parallel with geodynamic evolution provides critical information on plateau crustal thickening and uplift. Here we investigate the timing and duration of crustal melting through in situ analysis of zircon U-Pb ages, trace ...

The study investigates the seasonal transport of black carbon (BC) from Almaty, Kazakhstan, to adjacent mountain areas. The radiative effects associated with BC are evaluated at the surface, within the atmosphere, and at the top of the atmosphere. ABSTRACT Large cities with poor air quality can affect surrounding areas through pollutant transport and ...

Oligocene clockwise rotations along the eastern Pamir: Tectonic and paleogeographic implications [PDF]
Despite the importance of the Pamir range in controlling Asian paleoenvironments and land-sea paleogeography, its tectonic evolution remains poorly constrained in time and space, hindering its potential for understanding deep to surface processes.
