This paper presents the ethnographic narratives about the indigenous technology of seeding/ grafting glaciers in Baltistan.
Microplastic pollution in typical cryospheric regions of the North-Western Himalayas
Mountain-top bird species face extreme conditions, shaping breeding site selection. We monitored alpine nests in temperate Andes. Rock cavities buffer temperatures, potentially enhancing breeding success and adaptation to harsh weather
Microplastic contaminants pose a risk to Himalayan groundwater aquifers and its future perspectives
Microplastics pose critical risks to Himalayan groundwater, transported via atmospheric deposition and snowmelt. Their mobility, interactions, and co-contaminant roles demand sustainable management.
Isotope derived snowmelt routing in mountainous basins of western Himalaya, India
Himalayan cryospheric waters are vital for freshwater supply to billions, supporting agro-economic stability in the region with warming climates posing risks to river flow consistency.
