A case of rocky mountain spotted fever without eschar as a cause of pyrexia with multiple organ failure [PDF]
, 2017 Rocky mountain spotted fever (RMSF) is a rickettsia disease frequently reported from North America and Europe and transmitted by tick bite. This disease is very rare in India and other parts of South East Asia.

Characteristics of historical precipitation in high mountain asia based on a 15-year high resolution dynamical downscaling [PDF]
, 2021 The mountains of High Mountain Asia serve as an important source of water for roughly one billion people living downstream. This research uses 15 years of dynamically downscaled precipitation produced by the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model ...

Remote Sensing and Modeling of the Cryosphere in High Mountain Asia: A Multidisciplinary Review
Remote SensingOver the past decades, the cryosphere has changed significantly in High Mountain Asia (HMA), leading to multiple natural hazards such as rock–ice avalanches, glacier collapse, debris flows, landslides, and glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs). Monitoring

How Well do Global Snow Products Characterize Snow Storage in High Mountain Asia?
Geophysical Research Letters, 2022 Accurate characterization of peak snow water storage in High Mountain Asia (HMA) is essential for assessing the water supply to over 1 billion downstream residents.

Numerical simulations of the impacts of mountain on oasis effects in arid Central Asia [PDF]
, 2017 The oases in the mountain-basin systems of Central Asia are extremely fragile. Investigating oasis effects and oasis-desert interactions is important for understanding the ecological stability of oases.

A Review of Karakoram Glacier Anomalies in High Mountains Asia
Water, 2023 Influenced by global warming, glaciers in High Mountains Asia (HMA) generally show a trend of retreat and thinning, but in Karakoram, Pamir, and West Kunlun there is a trend of glacier stabilization or even a weak advance. In this study, using a bibliometric analysis, we systematically sorted the area, mass balance, and elevation changes of the ...
