Assessing the extent to which glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are increasing in frequency modern times and whether their incidence is driven by anthropogenic climate change requires historical context. However, progress on this issue hampered incomplete GLOF inventories, especially remote mountain regions. Here, we exploit high-resolution, multi-temporal satellite aerial imagery, documenta...

The spatial and temporal span of hydrological impact the “Little Ice Age” (LIA) in north-western Himalaya is not well constrained due to data limitation. We evaluated a network tree-ring chronologies from moisture-stressed ecological settings Jammu Kashmir identify LIA over western Himalaya. Our study reflects three centennial scale phases; middle phase (1650s–1850s CE) with stable precipitatio...

The phasing of millennial-scale oscillations in Antarctica relative to those elsewhere in the world is important for discriminating among models for abrupt climate change, particularly those involving the Southern Ocean. However, records of millennial-scale variability from Antarctica dating to the last glacial maximum are rare and rely heavily on data from widely spaced ice cores, some of whic...
