Enhanced glacial lake activity threatens numerous communities and infrastructure in the Third Pole

T. Zhang, W. Wang, et al.

This groundbreaking research conducted by Taigang Zhang, Weicai Wang, Baosheng An, and Lele Wei investigates the increasing risk of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) in the Third Pole. With accelerated proglacial lake expansion and intensifying events since 1980, their findings reveal that over 6,353 km² of land is at risk, posing threats to communities and infrastructure. Discover the urgency for disaster mitigation strategies in this crucial study!
