Health and sustainability of glaciers in High Mountain Asia
E. Miles, M. Mccarthy, et al.
Explore the alarming state of glaciers in High Mountain Asia, where only 60% of yearly meltwater loss is replenished, potentially leading to significant water supply shortages for millions. Research by Evan Miles, Michael McCarthy, Amaury Dehecq, Marin Kneib, Stefan Fugger, and Francesca Pellicciotti reveals that without action, we could see a 28% decrease in river ablation by 2100.
