Land Degradation &Development, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 250-268, 15 January 2023., 2023 Abstract Land degradation is the persistent reduction in the capacity of the land to support human and other life on Earth (IPBES, 2018). This process jeopardizes the provision of ecosystem services. The Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 15, ‘Life on Land’, includes efforts to sustainably manage and recover natural ecosystems and restore degraded land

Spatial and temporal dynamics of aufeis in the Tso Moriri basin, eastern Ladakh, India
Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, Volume 34, Issue 1, Page 81-93, January/March 2023., 2023 Abstract Aufeis is a common phenomenon in cold regions of the Northern Hemisphere that develops during winter by successive water overflow and freezing on ice‐covered surfaces. Most studies on aufeis occurrence focus on regions in North America and Siberia, while research in High Mountain Asia (HMA) is still in an exploratory phase.
