Precipitation regime changes in High Mountain Asia driven by cleaner air

Nature, 2023
High Mountain Asia (HMA) has experienced a spatial imbalance in water resources in recent decades, partly because of a dipolar pattern of precipitation changes known as South Drying-North Wetting1. These changes can be influenced by both human activities and internal climate variability2,3.

Decreasing trends of mean and extreme snowfall in High Mountain Asia.

Science of The Total Environment
Intense warming profoundly alters precipitation phase patterns and intensity in High Mountain Asia (HMA). While snowfall climatology and precipitation extremes have been studied, there is a lack of understanding of snowfall extremes within HMA. Here, we investigate the spatial and temporal variability of non-extreme and extreme snowfall in hydrological

Imminent Threat of Rock-Ice Avalanches in High Mountain Asia

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2021
Upsurge of glacier-related hazards in High Mountain Asia (HMA) has been evident in recent years due to global warming. While many glacial-related hazards are instantaneous, some large landslides were preceded by slow gravitational deformation, which can be predicted to evade catastrophes.

Exceptional increases in fluvial sediment fluxes in a warmer and wetter High Mountain Asia

Science, 2021
Description Muddied waters The climate of High Mountain Asia is becoming warmer and wetter. Li et al. present data showing that rivers originating in this region have experienced large increases in runoff and sediment fluxes over the past six decades ...
