What is the impact of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) on the ecosystem and local communities in Sikkim?5 answersGlacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) in Sikkim Himalaya have led to the enlargement of glacier-fed lakes, posing a potential threat to downstream communities and ecosystems. The number of lakes in the Chhombo Chhu Watershed has increased from 62 to 98, with a significant expansion in total area by 34.6 ± 5.4% from 1975 to 2018. The majority of the proglacial lakes in the watershed have significantly enlarged due to faster melting and calving processes, driven by increasing long-term average annual temperature trends. The lake outburst susceptibility assessment reveals the existence of twenty-seven potentially dangerous glacial lakes in the watershed, with varying levels of outburst probability. The potential breach of these lakes poses a threat to downstream communities in the mountain and Tarai regions. The impacts of GLOFs in Sikkim include the potential for loss of life, damage to infrastructure, and disruption of ecosystems.
