Long-term estimation of glacier mass balance using geospatial techniques in Western Himalayas, Ladakh, India

Quaternary Science Advances, 2023
All glaciers are subject to mass fluctuations in the current context of climate change. For daily requirements like food, drink, irrigation, and the generation of hydroelectric power, these glaciers provide water to important basins including the Indus ...

Middle Jurassic ooidal ironstones (southern Tibet): Formation processes and implications for the paleoceanography of eastern Neo-Tethys

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The major facies changes documented in shallow-marine sediments of the northern Indian passive margin of Neo-Tethys throughout the Jurassic, from widespread platform carbonates in the Early Jurassic to organic-rich black shales in the Late Jurassic ...

Exploring the Links Between Variations in Snow Cover Area and Climatic Variables Across the Upper Indus Basin Under a Changing Climate

International Journal of Climatology, Volume 46, Issue 2, February 2026.
Google Earth Engine was utilised to assess snow cover area (SCA) across eight Upper Indus Basin (UIB) subbasins, employing ARIMA for prediction and comparing MODIS datasets using Dunn's test. Spatiotemporal changes were analysed using MK, Sen's slope, and other statistical tests.

Initial glaciological investigations on a large Himalayan glacier: Drang Drung (Zanskar, Ladakh, India)

Journal of Glaciology
In situ glaciological observations in the Himalaya–Karakoram (HK) region mostly come from small glaciers. Drang Drung (69.6 km2, Zanskar, Ladakh) is the largest glacier in the HK monitored for in situ glacier-wide mass balances applying the traditional ...

A ModEx Framework for Watershed Subsurface Investigation With Limited Geophysical Data Using Machine Learning and Hydrologic Modeling

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 2, 28 January 2026.
Abstract Subsurface heterogeneity influences watershed hydrology strongly but remains difficult to characterize at catchment scales with sparse and costly field data. Geophysical surveys such as electromagnetic induction (EMI) provide local spatial subsurface images yet scaling them to watershed scales and converting EMI‐derived resistivity into ...

An Inverse Method for Quantifying Petrological Parameters and Uncertainty in Phase Equilibrium Modelling

Journal of Metamorphic Geology, Volume 44, Issue 1, Page 70-84, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Phase equilibrium modelling offers a powerful quantitative framework for understanding petrological processes. Yet, many studies still rely on qualitative comparisons between natural datasets and these forward modelled predictions to constrain model parameters, commonly pressure–temperature (P–T) conditions.

Morphological characteristics and controlling factors of the piedmont fan systems in the Zanskar region, Northwest Himalaya, India

Quaternary Science Advances
Piedmont fans are prominent geomorphic features formed at the transition between mountain slopes and valley floors. This study investigates the morphology of alluvial fans in the Zanskar Basin (ZB) to uncover the key variables influencing their ...

Remagnetization of Lower Cretaceous Limestones in the Western Tethyan Himalaya and Its Tectonic Implications for the India‐Asia Collision

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 26, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract The drift history of the Tethyan Himalaya provides key constraints on the India‐Asia collision, Himalayan‐Tibetan orogenesis, and associated global climate change. Here we present rock magnetic, petrographic, geochronologic, and paleomagnetic results of the Bolinxiala Formation limestones in the western Tethyan Himalaya.

River Connectivity: A Comparative Review Between AI and Experts

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Rivers are critical corridors for the movement of energy, matter, and organisms and essential for maintaining ecological balance, economic activities, and recreation. This connectivity in rivers, describing the flow of mass and energy across multiple spatio‐temporal scales, is crucial for ecosystem resilience and function.
