Mapping hazards from glacier lake outburst floods based on modelling of process cascades at Lake 513, Carhuaz, Peru

, 2014
Recent warming has had enormous impacts on glaciers and high-mountain environments. Hazards have changed or new ones have emerged, including those from glacier lakes that form as glaciers retreat.

Remediation of Organic Pollutant for Wastewater Treatment by Employing Sustainable Graphene Oxide/NiO‐ZrO2/Zeolite Ternary Composite Material

CleanMat, EarlyView.
Graphene oxide/NiO‐ZrO2/zeolite ternary composite was synthesized hydrothermally. Efficient adsorption of Congo red onto GO/NiO‐ZrO2/zeolite composite was studied. ABSTRACT The present study employs a novel method for the synthesis of graphene oxide (GO) based ternary composite utilized for the adsorption of Congo red (CR), an anionic dye molecule. The

Step-change in supraglacial pond area on Tshojo Glacier, Bhutan, and potential downstream inundation patterns due to pond drainage events

Journal of Glaciology
Climate change is causing Himalayan glaciers to shrink rapidly and natural hazards to increase, while downstream exposure is growing. Glacier shrinkage promotes the formation of glacial lakes, which can suddenly drain and produce glacier lake outburst ...

Point cloud technology and 2D computational flow dynamic modeling for rapid hazards and disaster risk appraisal on Yellow Creek fan, Southern Alps of New Zealand

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2018
Glacial recession in Alpine Valleys uncorks low-altitude tributary valleys that spill trapped sediments in the sediment cascade, in turn generating sediment-related hazards and flood hazards. Within this complex, the present contribution investigates the

Drivers of the Extreme Early Spring Glacier Melt of 2022 on the Central Tibetan Plateau

Earth and Space Science
Extreme glacier melt has important implications for climate change studies and glacier‐related hazards. Few attempts have been made to study the characteristics and mechanisms of extreme melt on the Tibetan Plateau (TP) and surroundings, one of the ...

Recent Advances in Prussian Blue Analogs as Capacitive Deionization Electrode Materials: Fundamentals, Structure–Performance Relationships, and Design Strategies

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines the fundamental ion‐storage mechanisms, the structural chemistry, and redox behavior of Prussian blue analogs as Faradaic electrodes in capacitive deionization, their intrinsic limitations and engineering optimization strategies, and the critical materials‐to‐device considerations required to advance PBA‐based CDI ...

Effect of dust event timing on glacier runoff: sensitivity analysis for a Tibetan glacier [PDF]

, 2007
The impact of the timing of dust deposition on glacier runoff was evaluated using a glacier mass-balance model with a newly improved scheme to track a dusted layer in a snow layer of a glacier.

Global glacier changes

, 2008
Changes in glaciers and ice caps provide some of the clearest evidence of climate change, and as such they constitute key variables for early detection strategies in global climate-related observations.

Studies on the Nutritional, Functional, Textural, and Sensory Characteristics of Finger and Barnyard Millet‐Incorporated Nuggets

Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.
The graphic illustrates the development of nuggets traditionally known as “wari” prepared with whole green grams and composite flour barnyard millet var. (PRJ‐1) and finger millet var. (VL‐M‐380) in a 1:1 ratio. The addition of millet significantly improved the nutritional value of nuggets, providing higher levels of protein, carbohydrates, fiber ...

Shaking up Assumptions: Earthquakes Have Rarely Triggered Andean Glacier Lake Outburst Floods

Geophysical Research Letters
As the world’s glaciers recede in response to a warming atmosphere, a change in the magnitude and frequency of related hazards is expected. Among the most destructive hazards are glacier lake outburst floods (GLOFs), and their future evolution is ...
