Ice as an Agent of Sculpting Land

Heatwaves have become one of the most lethal and least acknowledged consequences of climate change in India. What was once an occasional extreme is now a defining feature of India’s seasonal climate,...
India’s coastal regions, stretching thousands of kilometers, are on the frontlines of a creeping environmental crisis—saltwater intrusion. Unlike cyclones or tsunamis, this is a disaster that doesn’t...
Heatwaves in India have evolved from seasonal anomalies to one of the country’s most pressing climate emergencies. While the meteorological understanding of heatwaves has advanced significantly, facil...
The glaciers have sculpted various landforms transforming the geomorphology of earth. These landforms are the result of processes of weathering, erosion and deposition under harsh climatic regimes.
Himalayan glaciers influence the water regimes of major river systems in Asia and help sustain more than a billion people from several countries. Changing climate is threatening the health of Himalaya...
It is easy to arrest a decline in Himalayan biodiversity, provided local communities are involved in the process. Efforts in the Himalayan region prove this beyond doubt.
The glaciers have sculpted various landforms transforming the geomorphology of earth. These landforms are the result of processes of weathering, erosion and deposition under harsh climatic regimes.
Himalayan glaciers influence the water regimes of major river systems in Asia and help sustain more than a billion people from several countries. Changing climate is threatening the health of Himalayan glaciers and potentially increasing hazards like glacier lake outburst flood, avalanches and landslides.
