1 day ago · In High Mountain Asia, many communities rely on meltwater from glaciers – and Landsat can help track how those glaciers are changing in a warming climate. Previous studies with Landsat have documented shrinkage of Himalayan glaciers, as well as changing lake levels the adjacent Tibetan plateau.

24 minutes ago · The Himalayan kingdom has a strong commitment to natural preservation – it’s written into the constitution that at least 60% of land is under forest cover, while more than 51% of the country ...
3 hours ago · Tectonic Summary Seismotectonics of the Himalaya and Vicinity. Seismicity in the Himalaya dominantly results from the continental collision of the India and Eurasia plates, which are converging at a relative rate of 40-50 mm/yr. Northward underthrusting of India beneath Eurasia generates numerous earthquakes and consequently makes this area one of the most seismically hazardous regions on Earth.

1 day ago · This paper presents a novel technique to estimate the unsaturated and saturated flow parameters by employing the meta-heuristic Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (SFLA). In addition, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is combined uniquely in the simulations to reduce the computational time in predicting the hydraulic heads.
