Increasing global threat of outburst floods from overlooked small alpine lakes
Impact of Climate Variability on the Feeding Glaciers of Potentially Dangerous Glacial Lakes in the Jhelum Basin of Kashmir Himalaya, India
Global climate change has resulted in the widespread melting of glaciers. The formation of new lakes and the expansion of existing lakes has now become a common phenomenon in high mountainous regions due to the continuous meltwater supply from these retreating glaciers. Studies in the Himalayan region have reported the retreat of glaciers and the rapid expansion of glacial lakes due to increasing temperatures and a declining trend in precipitatio…
Understanding Glacial Lake Evolution and the Associated GLOF Hazard in the Shyok Catchment of the Upper Indus Basin Using Geospatial Techniques
As glaciers recede in response to global climate change, significant growth of glacial lakes is being witnessed in the Himalayan region. Owing to their high elevations, rapid growth, and their occurrence behind loosely consolidated glacial moraine deposits, these lakes pose a significant threat of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs). This study focused on tracing the glacial lake evolution in the Shyok catchment of the Upper Indus Basin over a 3…
The geographies of apple cultivation
The production and distribution of food is an important aspect of agricultural geography. Tracing the origin of crops is vital to ensuring future food security, especially in the context of geopolitical and climate change. Drawing on a case study of Kashmir, this article demonstrates how evidence from archaeobotany and ancient writings can be used to trace the geographies of apple domestication, cultivation and distribution. In doing so, it draws…
