Bulk carbon and lignin fingerprinting of catchment sediments transported by mountain rivers in Nepal Himalayas

Rajendra Bhandari et al.

Summary: The Himalayan rivers play a crucial role in transporting organic carbon and sediments to the ocean. The source and fate of these materials vary in different regions of the Himalayas, with rivers from the Lesser Himalayas and Siwaliks carrying higher levels of organic carbon. The organic matter in Himalayan rivers is mainly in the form of dissolved organic carbon, and rivers from the Lesser Himalayas and Siwaliks transport more organic material during the monsoon season compared to other regions.

Effect of multiple climate change scenarios and predicted land-cover on soil erosion: a way forward for the better land management

Bilal Aslam et al.

Summary: The study utilized models to analyze the impact of land cover change and future climate change on soil erosion and sediment yield in the Chitral district. The results indicated the possibility of more severe erosion and sediment yield in the future, requiring effective measures to mitigate potential impacts.
