The Himalayas, the “ThirdPole”, hold some of the largest reserves of ice. These glaciers feed rivers that sustain nearly 1.9 billion people across Asia.

At CryoSCOPE, researchers are studying how snow, ice, and groundwater interact in these fragile mountain systems.

Happy New Year from CryoSCOPE ✨

An EU–India project advancing cryosphere science during the Decade of Action.

From the Himalayas to the Arctic & Alps, we’re strengthening understanding of cryosphere–atmosphere–hydrosphere systems.

Stay tuned for more data, insights, and science ahead. ❄️🌍

Through #CryoSCOPE, researchers are creating a connected data network spanning the #Arctic, #Alps, and #Himalayas, linking local observations into a global picture of Earth’s changing water and energy cycles.

Because without reliable data, there can be no reliable climate predictions. ❄️
