Rising Lake Levels Across High Mountain Asia

Abstract. High-altitude lakes across High Mountain Asia (HMA) are one of the critical freshwater reservoirs and sensitive indicators of climate change due to their remote locations and limited human disturbances. This study presents continuous water level estimates for 232 lakes across HMA from 2010 to 2024 using CryoSat-2 and ICESat-2 data.
