Interannual modulation of seasonal glacial velocity variations in the Eastern Karakoram detected by ALOS-1/2 data

Journal of Glaciology, 2018
Unlike in most other regions, Karakoram glaciers are either stable or advancing, a phenomenon known as the Karakoram anomaly. Despite studies of glacier surges and the derivation of surface velocity maps, the spatiotemporal variability of glacier ...

Anomalous glaciers response to climate variability in the Karakoram region

ISPRS Open Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing
Karakoram glaciers exhibit steady mass or expansion in the central and western Karakoram, contrasting with the retreat observed in the eastern Karakoram and respond differently to climatic conditions compared to glaciers in the world—a phenomenon termed ...

Temperature reconstruction from glacier length fluctuations in the Himalaya

Annals of Glaciology, 2016
A temperature reconstruction in the glacierized Himalaya over the past centuries using glacial length fluctuation records is challenging due to the abundance of debris-covered glaciers and a scarcity of glacial length fluctuation data.

The Karakoram Anomaly? Glacier Expansion and the ‘Elevation Effect,’ Karakoram Himalaya

Mountain Research and Development, 2005
Abstract In the late 1990s widespread evidence of glacier expansion was found in the central Karakoram, in contrast to a worldwide decline of mountain glaciers. The expansions were almost exclusively in glacier basins from the highest parts of the range and developed quickly after decades of decline.

Warming climate amplifies glacier hazards on the China-Pakistan Highway

Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
Study region: China–Pakistan Karakoram Highway (KKH) and its surroundings. Study focus: Glaciers along the China–Pakistan International Karakoram Highway (KKH) exhibit relative stable or mass gain, a phenomenon termed “Karakoram Anomaly”, contrasting ...

A Machine Learning Framework for Objective Definition and Projection of Meteorological Seasons: An Application to the Indian Subcontinent

Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 20, 28 October 2026.
Abstract Meteorological seasons are typically defined through fixed calendar intervals or region‐specific thresholds, yet such approaches fail to capture the actual variability of the annual cycle. Here we present a machine learning framework that objectively detects meteorological seasons and projects their future evolution.

Melt‐Regulated Crustal Kinematics in the Pamir, NW Tibetan Plateau: Insights From Surface‐Wave Tomography

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 17, 16 September 2026.
Abstract The Pamir, located at the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, is undergoing E–W extension within its interior, accommodated by micro‐block motions along major fault systems; however, the mechanisms governing this modern block kinematics remain elusive.

A first attempt to model region-wide glacier surface mass balances in the Karakoram: findings and future challenges [PDF]

, 2017
In contrast to the central and eastern part of High Mountain Asia (HMA), no extensive glacier mass loss has been observed in the Karakoram during previous decades.

Provenance Constraints on Early India–Asia Collision: Evidence From the Late Cretaceous–Early Cenozoic Sulaiman–Katawaz Basin Fill

Basin Research, Volume 38, Issue 5, September‐October 2026.
Integrated detrital zircon U–Pb, Nd–Sr isotopes and thermochronology record western Indian‐margin provenance reorganisation. Late Cretaceous–Palaeocene sediment supply was Indian‐affinity; Asian‐affinity input appeared across the Palaeocene–Eocene transition (~56.5–54.7 Ma), suggesting India–Asia collision was underway, while mixed provenance persisted
