@rashmi89singh@icimod This is a very good topic and its important not only in the Himalayas but also in plain areas. With the expansion of agricultural activities and other mismanaged lands, natural grasslands are disappearing in rural areas. best wishes Dr. Rashmi.
Dr Shailesh Nayak stands as a beacon in the realm of oceanography & Earth sciences. He pioneered India's first Tsunami Warning System, significantly bolstering the nation's disaster response capabilities. Many congratulations sir @DrShaileshNaya1 🎉
@HarshVatsa7@Ice_Singh Intresting find, this may also help in establishing climatic linkages between loose debris and glacial retreat and the cumulative impact of the warming in either conditions.@HarshVatsa7@ice_singh
NCPOR makes a new beginning by initiating research Expeditions in the #Arctic during winter and spring with 24 hours of darkness to address the knowledge gap and data deficiency for the #polar nights. If interested, apply at: https://t.co/Tb1L8u0JhW

A new study on Glacier dynamics assessment in Eastern Dhauliganga basin, Kumaun Himalaya, by @Ice_Singh. The clean-ice glaciers retreated at a rate of 4.8–33.7 m/yr, whereas debris-covered glaciers retreated at the rate of 2.9–28.8 m/yr during 1994–2018. https://t.co/uiDxVa2yy5

I'm pleased to share my recent publication on the Eastern Dhauliganga basin (Kumaun Himalaya). I'm so much thankful to my guide Dr. Praveen K. Thakur sir (IIRS-ISRO) and other colleagues for their continuous support and mentoring.

I'm becoming relatively obsessed with looking at supraglacial water on ice from space. The outlet glacier Kronebreen, Svalbard also looks pretty banging in this Landsat 9 image from 3rd July 2023
