Asia's glacier changes

Nature Geoscience, 2017
Mass changes in High Mountain Asia’s glaciers have been under dispute for almost a decade. An analysis of satellite data archives provides an observation-based mass budget for every single glacier in the region.

Spatiotemporal variability of glacier changes and their controlling factors in the Kanchenjunga region, Himalaya based on multi-source remote sensing data from 1975 to 2015.

Science of the Total Environment, 2020
Spatio-temporal behavior of glaciers in the Himalayas has varied greatly in response to reported climate warming and other modulating factors such as topography, debris cover, and glacier morphology.

Glacier changes and associated climate drivers for the last three decades, Nanda Devi region, Central Himalaya, India

, 2020
The glaciers are considered as iconic indicators of climate change, and receding at differential rates worldwide. Variable retreat rates of glacier termini and inadequate supporting field data (e.g.

The Health of Glaciers: Recent Changes in Glacier Regime

Climatic Change, 2003
Glacier wastage has been pervasive during the last century; small glaciers and those in marginal environments are disappearing, large mid-latitude glaciers are shrinking slightly, and arctic glaciers are warming. Net mass balances during the last 40 years are predominately negative and both winter and summer balances (accumulation and ablation) and ...

Past and Future Glacier Changes in the Indus River Basin

Indus River Basin, 2019
Glacier meltwater contributes significantly to the runoff of the Indus River, especially during summer months when precipitation in large areas of the basin is very low. This chapter reviews the current knowledge on the measured past and projected future

Glacier changes

2017
Glaciers are naturally subject to changes in line with the Earth's climate variability. Area and length changes of glaciers which are not influenced by debris cover, calving, or dynamic instabilities show a filtered and delayed climate signal while the glacier mass balance can be more directly linked to climate.

Glaciers Evolution in a Changing World

2017
Glaciers have always played an important role in human history, and currently, they are carefully observed as climate change sentinels. Glacier melt rate is increasing, and its mass balance is continuously negative. This issue deserves accurate and in-depth studies in order to, adequately, monitor its state.
