Heterogeneity in Karakoram glacier surges [PDF]

, 2015
Many Karakoram glaciers periodically undergo surges during which large volumes of ice and debris are rapidly transported downglacier, usually at a rate of 1-2 orders of magnitude greater than during quiescence. Here we identify eight recent surges in the

Slight glacier mass loss in the Karakoram region during the 1970s to 2000 revealed by KH-9 images and SRTM DEM

Journal of Glaciology, 2017
An anomalously slight glacier mass gain during 2000 to the 2010s has recently been reported in the Karakoram region. However, to date, no investigations of the region-wide glacier mass balance in the Karakoram prior to 2000 have been reported, leaving a ...

Brief Communication: On the magnitude and frequency of Khurdopin glacier surge events [PDF]

The Cryosphere, 2014
The return periods of Karakoram glacier surges are poorly quantified. Here, we present evidence of an historic surge of the Khurdopin Glacier that began in the mid-1970s and peaked in 1979.

Occurrences of low-stress drop earthquakes in the eastern Ladakh-Karakoram zone of the Trans Himalaya and their tectonic implications

Journal of Asian Earth Sciences: X, 2022
The Ladakh-Karakoram zone is a unique testing ground for understanding the geodynamic evolution of the Himalaya-Karakoram orogeny. Despite the accumulation of a large amount of strain energy that originated due to the India-Asia collision along the ...

Similarity measure between Pythagorean fuzzy sets based on lower, upper and middle fuzzy sets with applications to pattern recognition and multicriteria decision making with PF-TODIM [PDF]

Songklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2023
The choice of similarity measure (SM) plays an important role in distinguishing between objects. Similarity measure of Pythagorean fuzzy sets (PFSs) is very useful and effective in discriminating between different Pythagorean fuzzy sets.
