立正大学の永井先生が、ネパール・中国国境付近で発生した大規模土石流災害の衛星画像解析結果をまとめてくださっています。
典型的な氷河湖決壊洪水（GLOF）とは異なり、氷河末端部の大規模な崩落を起点として発生した土石流の可能性が高いとの見解だそうです。

Sharing a study led by Dr. Francesca Baldacchino, which I contributed to! We resolved the seasonal variation in glacier speed and found that speed-ups and slowdowns in ice flow are associated with water trapped beneath the glaciers.

😬Almost 40% of glaciers in Central Europe were lost between 2000 and 2023.
A new study, using data from various satellite🛰️observations -including @esa_cryosat mission- reveals alarming insights about the declining rate of glaciers.
