The state and fate of Himalayan glaciers - A paper published in the magazine Science
Posted on 05 May, 2012 06:21 PMThe paper argues that there is a poor understanding of the processes affecting the Himalayan glaciers in the context of the diversity of climatic conditions and the extremes of topographical relief within the region, making projections speculative, which can have a significant impact on the future of water resources in the area. It is thus important to have more information on the status of the glaciers in the Himalayan region.
