High Mountain Vegetation of North Asia: Dryad Tundras

Сибирский экологический журнал, 2015
The main distribution patterns of dryad tundras in high-mountain regions, where they form a large cryophilic florocenotic system, have been studied. The cenoflora of dryad tundras comprises 286 species of vascular plants, among which there are several marker groups that indicate dryad tundras in general and their regional features in particular.

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

The effect of irrigation on glacier evolution in High-Mountain Asia

Over the past century, global irrigation extent has expanded nearly fivefold, increasing from approximately 63Mha in the early 1900s to over 306Mha today. This growth has been particularly pronounced in Asia, which accounts for roughly 85% of current global irrigation withdrawals.

Glacial and Tectonic Mass Transportation in High Mountain Asia

2019
Nearly each part of the HMA glaciers develops in its own individual features. For instance, glaciers on the TP are generally of three different types and are controlled by diverse factors.

Rising Lake Levels Across High Mountain Asia

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. However, the ongoing climate change and enhanced glacier melt represent a substantial risk of outburst floods.
