ASTRACT: Snow avalanches pose serious threat to Indian troops deployed in snow-bound areas of western Himalaya during winter months. The most viable way to mitigate avalanche threat in these areas is to precisely predict the time and place of their occurrences. Since, the factors involved in the formation of an avalanche are too many and underlying physical processes are quite complex, no predi...

[1] Erosion in the Himalaya is responsible for one of the greatest mass redistributions on Earth and has fueled models of feedback loops between climate and tectonics. Although the general trends of erosion across the Himalaya are reasonably well known, the relative importance of factors controlling erosion is less well constrained. Here we present 25 Be-derived catchment-averaged erosion rates...

Sedimentary archives in the Himalayan foreland basin and Indus submarine fan provide the most detailed records of how changing monsoon strength may have affected erosion and the development of tectonic structures in the western Himalaya during the Neogene. Muscovite Ar-Ar ages show that fast exhumation of the Greater Himalaya was earlier in the west (20–35 Ma) than in the central Himalaya (10–2...

This paper presents the spatial and temporal variation in diversity of malacofauna relation to water chemistry Aripal stream Kashmir Himalaya. A total 12 species were reported which belong four families, Lymnaeidae, Physidae, Planorbidae, Bithyniidae from class Gastropoda, two Cyrenidae Pisidiidae Bivalvia. The family Planorbidae contributed 34% annual molluscan population followed by Lymnaeida...
