Different glacier status with atmospheric circulations in Tibetan Plateau and surroundings
TL;DR: This paper found that the most intensive glacier shrinkage is in the Himalayan region, whereas glacial retreat in the Pamir Plateau region is less apparent, due to changes in atmospheric circulations and precipitation patterns.
An inventory of glacial lakes in the Third Pole region and their changes in response to global warming
TL;DR: In this paper, the first glacial lake in- ventories for the Third Pole were conducted for ~1990, 2000, and 2010 using Landsat TM/ETM+ data.
Contrasted evolution of glacial lakes along the Hindu-Kush Himalaya mountain range between 1990 and 2009
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a first regional assessment of glacial lake distribution and evolution in the Himalaya (HKH) and selected seven sites between Bhutan and Afghanistan, to capture the climatic variability along the 2000 km long mountain range.

High resolution inventory and hazard assessment of potentially dangerous glacial lakes in upper Jhelum basin, Kashmir Himalaya, India
TL;DR: In this article , the authors used high resolution satellite data such as Indian Remote Sensing (IRS) LISS-IV (5.8 m) and Google earth images supplemented with field survey to generate an updated glacial lake inventory of Upper Jhelum Basin (UJB) of Kashmir Himalaya.
Glacial Lake Expansion in the Central Himalayas By Landsat Images, 1990-2010
Yong Nie,Qiao Liu,Shiyin Liu +2 more
TL;DR: A systematic investigation of the glacial lakes within the entire central Himalaya range by using an object-oriented image processing method based on the Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) or Enhanced ThematicMapper (ETM) images from 1990 to 2010 identified 67 rapidly expanding glacial Lakes in the central Himalayan region that need to be closely monitored in the future.

WorldClim 2: new 1-km spatial resolution climate surfaces for global land areas
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors created a new dataset of spatially interpolated monthly climate data for global land areas at a very high spatial resolution (approximately 1 km2), including monthly temperature (minimum, maximum and average), precipitation, solar radiation, vapour pressure and wind speed, aggregated across a target temporal range of 1970-2000, using data from between 9000 and 60,000 weather stations.
Journal ArticleDOI
The use of the Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) in the delineation of open water features
TL;DR: The Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) as mentioned in this paper is a new method that has been developed to delineate open water features and enhance their presence in remotely-sensed digital imagery.

Recent climate changes over the Tibetan Plateau and their impacts on energy and water cycle: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed recent research progress in the climate changes and explored their impacts on the Plateau energy and water cycle, based on which a conceptualmodeltosynthesize these changes was proposed andurgent issues to be explored were summarized.
