I am pleased to share my recent commentary featured in The Times of India on the 2026 Nepal–Tibet flood disaster and the cascading nature of hazards in high mountains.

This research pioneers the first comprehensive modelling of dam breaching & outburst process chains for the Gurudongmar Lake Complex & provides detailed GLOF exposure mapping. Our approach offers a replicable model for assessing risks in similar glacial lake systems globally.

On 20 August 2024, a large landslide damaged the Teesta Stage V power house at Baluatar, Sikkim in northern India:- https://t.co/0rbtMdrsDy
This site was affected by the October 2023 South Lhonak GLOF, which caused heavy damage along the Teesta River.

There have been many such landslides in the region... My home is very close to this Sikkim-Darjeeling region. Post-GLOF has really affected the unstable slopes along the mighty Tista River and frequent extreme rainfall events have impacted the region.

Geohazard/climate hazards such as GLOF are part of life in Khumbu, Everest region. How we mitigate such hazards is of utmost importance now more than ever. We have been seeing this since the 80s or b4. #Thame #GLOF, #Nepal. Stay safe and alert. #Climatehazard #Geohazard #flood

Like a window to hell! 😱
While doing @glamos_ch fieldwork today, there was time to marvel at the immense periglacial landslide from 14 April.
Incredible masses of rock and ice have completely re-sculpted the landscape. It will not be the same again...

Permafrost thaw is causing trees to topple and massive erosion into Glen Creek, not far from the CRREL permafrost tunnel in Alaska. #ClimateCrisis

[ICIMOD @icimod]

Glacial lakes are forming as glaciers melt due to global warming, posing a risk of sudden and devastating floods for the villagers living nearby. Watch the full video from @NHKWORLD_News to learn how people are coping with this environmental crisis and what solutions are being proposed to prevent future disasters.

This video is a reminder of the urgent need to act on climate change and protect the most vulnerable communities from its impacts.
