Tajikistan is a hotspot of plant and animal species diversity and endemism andis important for the conservation of biodiversity on a global scale. The country is located ata biological crossroads. Species from Central and Northern Europe, Central Asia, theMiddle East, and North Africa mingle here with endemics found nowhere else. Therichness of Tajikistan‘s biodiversity shows up at the genetic,...

Moisture supply in the Pamir Mountains of Central Asia significantly determines the hydrological cycle and, as a result, impacts the local communities via hazards or socioeconomic aspects, such as hydropower, agriculture and infrastructure. Scarce and unreliable in situ data prevent an accurate assessment of moisture supply, as well as its temporal and spatial variability in this strongly-heter...

Glaciers in China are primarily located in the Tibetan Plateau (TP) and surrounding high mountains. The Chinese Glacier Inventory indicates that there are 46 377 glaciers in western China. Meteorological records indicate that air temperature in western China has risen by 0.28C per decade since 1951, and 1998 was the warmest year; precipitation in the region increased by 5–10% per decade from 19...

Abstract. The detachment of large parts low-angle mountain glaciers resulting in massive ice–rock avalanches have so far been believed to be a unique type event, made known the global scientific community first for 2002 Kolka Glacier detachment, Caucasus Mountains, and then 2016 collapses two Aru range, Tibet. Since 2016, several so-far unrecognized glacier detachments recognized described, new...
