Glacial Isostatic Uplift in the Tibetan Plateau and Surroundings

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters
The Tibetan Plateau and surroundings host the largest number of modern glaciers outside the polar regions. However, the impact of (de)glaciation on present‐day geodetic measurements remains unclear.

Present-Day Tectonic Deformation Characteristics of the Northeastern Pamir Margin Constrained by InSAR and GPS Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing
The Pamir is located on the northwestern margin of the Tibetan Plateau, which is an area of intense continental deformation and part of the famous India–Himalaya collision zone. The dominant structural deformation in the eastern Pamir is characterized by

Surface Elevation Dynamics of Lake Karakul from 1991 to 2020 Inversed by ICESat, CryoSat-2 and ERS-1/2

open access: yesRemote Sensing
High-altitude lakes are sensitive indicators of climate change, reflecting the hydrological impacts of global warming in alpine regions. This study investigates the long-term dynamics of the water level and surface area of Lake Karakul on the eastern ...

Glacial Melting in Himalaya: Local Impacts of Climate Change on Mountain Ecosystems and Livelihoods [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Mountains are amongst the most flimsy environments on Earth. They are prosperous repositories of biodiversity, water and providers of ecosystem goods and services on which downstream communities, both regional and global, rely.

Unusual interactions above 100 TeV: A review of cosmic ray experiments with emulsion chambers [PDF]

open access: yes
A method is given for analyzing the space correlated collection of jets (gamma ray families) with energies greater than 100 TeV in Pb or Fe absorber sampled by photosensitive layers in an emulsion chamber. Events analyzed indicate large multiplicities of

Challenges to fieldwork before 1914 and today: Adaptation, Omission, Rediscovery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
John Chappell and, before him, Lord Curzon have reminded us that much can be gained from reviewing earlier writings and from listening to interruptions and silence.1 In January 2010, I discovered with amazement a wealth of unpublished observations ...

Joint document concerning geological studies from 1971 - 1975 [PDF]

open access: yes
In 1971, a joint Soviet-Americam Working Group on Remote Sensing of the Natural Environment was established. It was organized into a number of discipline panels, one of which was on geology. Membership on this panel came from the Geological Survey of the
