  1. Reconstrucción por desastre en el Himalaya costaría $4.780 millones, según Nepal

    La reconstrucción tras las devastadoras inundaciones del mes pasado por el colapso de un glaciar en la cordillera del Himalaya ascendería unos $4.780 millones, apuntó este viernes el Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores de Nepal. La avalancha de agua, lodo y escombros, similar a un tsunami, se produjo el 26 de agosto en la frontera entre […]

  5. Sind Flutkatastrophen wie im Himalaya auch in den Alpen möglich?

    Die Flut in Nepal und Tibet Ende August kostete Hunderte Menschen das Leben. Ausgelöst wurde das Unglück durch einen Felssturz. Ist eine vergleichbare Katastrophe auch in den Alpen möglich? Von Frank Bäumer.

  10. My sincere thoughts to those on the #Nepal / #Tibet #border so very affected by the recent (#climatechange-related) #glaciallakeoutburstflood (#GLOF) downstream affects (with a seeming #earthquake geotechnical failure trigger)

    The #deaths of your #family, #friends & #colleagues – and ‘things’ – must be so very hard!
    May the #missing individuals return safely. 🙏

    EDIT: Reading that ~100 million cubic metres of debris-laden water came down Nepal's Bhote Koshi valley; even as geologist familiar with 'non-human' time scales and a 'kinda-hydrologist-via-osmosis', that is simply an incomprehensible amount!

    🌊 Nepal #FlashFlood | When #Mountain #Hazards #Cascade
    The devastating flash #flood in Nepal is more than a flood story—it is a lesson in how interconnected the #Himalayan environment really is.
    Preliminary assessments indicate that an #ice #rock #avalanche likely blocked the #LhendeKhola, causing #water to build up and then surge downstream into the #BhotekoshiRiver system. Scientists are still investigating the exact chain of events, including whether recent #seismic activity contributed to the slope failure. (The Kathmandu Post)

    [Note - updated post with different images(s) as some commentators with their #wellactually approaches and puerile agendas are suggesting some of the images are AI-generated; these ones are confirmed from reputable places (Reuters, NBC in the USA, etc); sorry for any confusion - but NOT technical inaccuracies - in these posting(s)]

    “For years, the biggest climate warning from the Himalaya was easy to picture because glaciers were shrinking on the roof of Asia. Now, researchers are pointing to a quieter signal, one that can look almost harmless from a distance. The mountains are getting greener.
    New research [link above] shows alpine vegetation moving higher across six Himalayan regions from 1999 to 2022, pushed in part by warming and reduced snow depth. That might sound like nature recovering, but in this fragile landscape, more plant cover at extreme heights may change how snow is stored, how water runs downhill, and how rivers behave for communities far below…”
