| Description | Snow and ice constitute an important component of the hydrologic regime of many large mountain ranges and regions, including the Himalayas. However, the hydrologic regime of Himalayan catchment basins, and the role of glaciers in the hydrologic regime of this mountain range (particularly their contribution to base flow) are not well understood. There are concerns about the impact of climate change on cryosphere as well as population growth, changing economic activity, land use change, rapid... |
