Uttarakhand glacier burst: Glacial calving likely caused flash floods, say experts

Studies hint at faster glacial retreat

Studies hint at faster glacial retreat © Provided by Hindustan Times New Delhi: The Chamoli glacial breach and the disaster it has unleashed may be, in a manner of speaking, just the tip of the iceberg. Latest scientific research suggests that the retreat of glaciers in the entire Himalayan region, except some parts of the Karakoram range, has gathered pace. This, scientists say, will lead to more frequent disasters induced by glacier melt. A report modelled on the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) assessment reports, “Assessment of Climate Change over the Indian Region”, flagged last year that the Himalayas and the Tibetan plateau recorded a warming of 0.2 degrees Celsius per decadeduring 1951–2014. In some of the higher reaches, the warming was at the rate of 0.5 degrees Celsius per decade a much higher-than-average warming experienced over the entire country.
