Description
Summary:Cryosphere all over the globe is thawing, be it the Arctic, Antarctic, Greenland or Himalaya. Studies have predicted that loss in the glacier mass over the Upper Indus Basin in Kashmir Himalaya would amount to 47 to 67% (Romshoo in 7th conference of Science and Geopolitics of Arctic and Antarctic, 2023). A similar trend prevails in the Bhaga basin of the Upper Chenab, where glaciers in size classes
