Spatial and Temporal Analysis of Rainfall and Drought Condition in Southwest Xinjiang in Northwest China, Using Various Climate Indices

Ahmad Ali Khan et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the spatial and temporal variability of rainfall and found a decreasing trend in rainfall and an increasing trend in drought in the study area. The area, located in arid Southwest Xinjiang, is already endangered by these conditions, which are likely to worsen with decreasing rainfall. This research provides important information for decision makers to take proactive steps to mitigate the risks associated with increasing drought in the region.

Increasing glacial lake outburst flood hazard in response to surge glaciers in the Karakoram

Nazir Ahmed Bazai et al.

Summary: Unlike glaciers in other parts of the world, Karakoram glaciers show stable or increasing mass in response to global climate change, leading to the 'Karakoram anomaly'. The region experiences irregular glacier surges that pose a threat of ice dam lake formation and outburst flooding. This study documents 179 GLOFs from 1533 to 2020, predicting future increases in frequency due to glacier surge cycles and anomalous behavior.

Geospatially analysing the dynamics of the Khurdopin Glacier surge using multispectral and temporal remote sensing and ground observations

Muhammad Imran et al.

Summary: Karakorum glaciers, particularly the Khurdopin glacier, are known for frequent surges that block the Shimshal River and create new glacial lakes. The glacier surges occur approximately every 20 years, with an increase in ice mass, higher winter temperatures, and variations in snowfall observed. The study findings, combined with previous research, can help predict future surge events.

Glacier changes on the Nanga Parbat 1856-2020: A multi-source retrospective analysis

Marcus Nuesser et al.

Summary: This study examines the changes in glaciers in the Nanga Parbat region between 1856 and 2020, utilizing a combination of historical maps, satellite imagery, and digital elevation models. The research reveals slight changes in ice-covered area for 63 glaciers, with a 7% decrease between 1934 and 2019. The study highlights the importance of various factors such as ice and snow avalanches, surge-type instabilities, and site-specific topographic characteristics in influencing individual glacier changes, showing similarity with the stable glacier mass in the Karakoram region.

Glacier changes in the Chhombo Chhu Watershed of the Tista basin between 1975 and 2018, the Sikkim Himalaya, India

Arindam Chowdhury et al.

Summary: This article investigates the changes in glacier area in the Chhombo Chhu Watershed of the Sikkim Himalayas, revealing a decrease of approximately 17.9 square kilometers since 1975, with clean glaciers experiencing more significant area loss. Additionally, the study suggests that a significant increase in temperature is one of the main reasons for glacier recession.
