High Mountain Asia hydropower systems threatened by climate-driven landscape instability

Dongfeng Li et al.

Summary: Climate change is worsening geohazards in High Mountain Asia, posing an increasing risk to hydropower and water infrastructure in the region. Melting and thawing of the cryosphere are altering water supply, affecting downstream food and energy systems. Building reservoirs to regulate water flow and generate hydropower is crucial, but vulnerable to various destabilizing processes.

Climate Change and Its Impacts on Farmer's Livelihood in Different Physiographic Regions of the Trans-Boundary Koshi River Basin, Central Himalayas

Basanta Paudel et al.

Summary: The impact of climate change on farmers in the trans-boundary Koshi River Basin was investigated through a questionnaire survey and analysis of climatic data. Results showed adverse effects on crop production, human health, livestock, and vegetation, with rising temperatures, decreased rainfall, and increased frequency of climate-induced diseases and pests. Formulating appropriate adaptation strategies for different physiographic regions is crucial in minimizing the impact of climate change.
