To map the effects of climate change, mountain hydrologist Walter Immerzeel (@mountainhydrology.bsky.social) and his team venture to remote altitudes where other scientists do not go.

Philip @kraaijenbrink.bsky.social pioneered using drones on understanding debris covered Himalayan glaciers. Now a final paper is published that summarizes 5 years of drone surveys in the Langtang valley in Nepal! @mountainhydrology.bsky.social

Spatial and Temporal Variability of the Surface Mass Balance of Debris‐Covered Glacier Tongues
Surface mass loss has high spatial heterogeneity, particularly near ice cliffs, but it is reduced at multi-annual time scale Although the overall effect is amplification, ice cliffs can both enha...

Fresh start at @bsky.app after fieldwork in the Himalaya. Wonderful time with @josephshea.bsky.social and @kraaijenbrink.bsky.social. Snow, rain, evapotranspiration and soil moisture at high altitude, and another sad year for the glaciers is the short summary.
