New Delhi: A month after the disaster in Chamoli district in Uttarakhand, in which at least 70 persons died and 130 or so more remain missing, scientists from three premier institutions have analysed more data to determine the likely cause of the incident – including heavy snowfall just before the day of the disaster, an overall increase in ambient temperature in the area, a rock and ice avalanche at an altitude of 5,600 metres, and a large volume of meltwater and glacial moraine hurtling down a narrow gorge. ....

New Delhi, March 4 : High resolution satellite imagery indicates that mass movement activities are still occurring where the rock and ice collapsed that led to a disaster in Uttarakhand last month, as per latest observations of national and international scientists.
In case of another slope failure and avalanche, this can be critical for people and infrastructure downstream, close to the riverbed.
On the another disaster in the making, scientists working under the Glacier and Permafrost Hazards in Mountains (Gaphaz) a standing group of the International Association of Cryospheric Sciences and the International Permafrost Association believe large volumes of material have been eroded and deposited along th ....

Synopsis
“The DRDO team is analysing all available data but an initial aerial survey indicates that a hanging glacier broke away from the main glacier triggering, the tragedy. The initial assessment is that the breakaway glacier formed a lake in the narrow valley after falling. This later burst causing the damage,” Dr LK Sinha, told ET.

Other expert teams are set to begin on-ground assessments for the examination of the debris left behind to find out more on the causes and chain of events. ....
