Assessing groundwater sustainability across high mountain Asia using remote sensing

Environmental Research Letters
Understanding long-term evolution of groundwater storage (GWS) is critical for water security in high mountain Asia (HMA), where hydrological systems are heavily dependent on glacier-fed recharges.

Tectonic evolution of a continental collision zone: A thermomechanical numerical model [PDF]

, 2004
We model evolution of a continent-continent collision and draw some parallels with the tectonic evolution of the Himalaya. We use a large-scale visco-plasto-elastic thermomechanical model that has a free upper surface, accounts for erosion and deposition

Will high heatwave risk be the new normal over high-elevation regions of northwestern High Mountain Asia in the future?

Environmental Research Communications
The rise in temperature as a consequence of climate change has significantly impacted the environmental, social, and economic systems worldwide, especially over complex terrains like High Mountain Asia (HMA). Assessment of the associated climate risks is

Potential climatic transitions with profound impact on Europe [PDF]

, 2011
We discuss potential transitions of six climatic subsystems with large-scale impact on Europe, sometimes denoted as tipping elements. These are the ice sheets on Greenland and West Antarctica, the Atlantic thermohaline circulation, Arctic sea ice, Alpine

Hydrological regimes and evaporative flux partitioning at the climatic ends of high mountain Asia

Environmental Research Letters
High elevation headwater catchments are complex hydrological systems that seasonally buffer water and release it in the form of snow and ice melt, modulating downstream runoff regimes and water availability.

Avalanche character and fatalities in the high mountains of Asia [PDF]

Annals of Glaciology, 2016
Abstract.With the exception of northern India, there are few, if any, consistent data records relating to avalanche activity in the high mountains of Asia. However, records do exist of avalanche fatalities in the region, contained in mountaineering expedition reports. In this paper, I review and analyze statistics of avalanche fatalities (both snow and

Deriving Bias and Uncertainty in MERRA-2 Snowfall Precipitation Over High Mountain Asia

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2019
A Bayesian approach to estimate bias and uncertainty in snowfall precipitation from MERRA-2 and other precipitation products was applied over High Mountain Asia (HMA), using a newly developed snow reanalysis method.

Ecology of the non-native snail Sinotaia cf quadrata (Caenogastropoda: Viviparidae). A study in a lowland stream of South America with different water qualities [PDF]

, 2017
Sinotaia quadrata is a snail native from Asia recorded for the first time in South America in 2009 in central Argentina. In 2015, this species was also found in a lowland stream with different water qualities. Our aims were to contribute to the knowledge
