Glacier velocity is the key to understanding nature of glaciers. Its variation plays an important role in glacier dynamics, mass balance, and climate change. The Muztag-Kongur Mountains are region Eastern Pamir Plateau. Under background global warming, has been widely considered, but details inter-annual intra-annual changes have not clear. In this study, we explored variations from 1990 2021, ...

We present a new high-resolution image of the crust beneath western Himalaya-Asia convergence zone encompassing geographical domain Himalaya-western Tibet-Ladakh-Karakoram-Pamir-Hindu Kush, using ambient noise cross-correlations from 530 seismological stations along with surface wave observations 1,261 earthquakes recorded over network. The 3-D shear velocity is created 22,726 inter-station Ray...

obtained during interviews with the ex-inhabitants of an abandoned village near the Igarapé do Urucú (a left affluent of the Rio Sucundurí, along the Serra do Sucundurí) indicates that M. acariensis and another species of marmoset with blackish hairs occur in the area. As M. melanurus has been confirmed as occurring in the Sucundurí Mountains (Noronha, unpubl. data), it is possible that these s...

The variation of forest types across Virginia reflects the diverse physiography of the state. From the sandy, low-elevation soils of the Coastal Plain to the dry, rocky soils on the southwestern slopes of the Appalachian Mountains, Virginia has one of the most diverse landscapes in the East (Fleming et al. 2006). Most forests in this area have been heavily influenced by anthropogenic disturbanc...

Two contrasting views of the active deformation of Asia dominate the debate about how continents deform: (i) The deformation is primarily localized on major faults separating crustal blocks or (ii) deformation is distributed throughout the continental lithosphere. In the first model, western Tibet is being extruded eastward between the major faults bounding the region. Surface displacement meas...

The Karakoram has a large concentration of surge-type glaciers, including 69 tributary compared to 152 main or trunk glaciers. paper addresses the interactions between and glaciers using digital elevation models (DEMs), surface displacement, field archival reports. In particular, it explores behavior impacts 13 glacier surges on three namely Hispar, Braldu Panmah. Observations include five surg...
