Glacial Lake Area Changes in High Mountain Asia during 1990–2020 Using Satellite Remote Sensing [PDF]
Research, 2022 Changes in a large-scale glacial lake area directly reflect the regional glacier status and climate changes. However, long time series of glacial lake dataset and comprehensive investigation of the spatiotemporal changes in the glacial lake area in the ...

Glacial lake expansion in the central Himalayas by Landsat images, 1990-2010. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Glacial lake outburst flood (GLOF) is a serious hazard in high, mountainous regions. In the Himalayas, catastrophic risks of GLOFs have increased in recent years because most Himalayan glaciers have experienced remarkable downwasting under a warming ...

Automated mapping of glacial lakes in Himachal Pradesh using multi source remote sensing data and machine learning [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe Himalayas are undergoing active climate-induced changes, resulting in glacial lake formation and expansion. Glacial lakes are important reservoirs of freshwater but also run the risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs).
