Transition of a small Himalayan glacier lake outburst flood to a giant transborder flood and debris flow
Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are a great concern for the Himalaya, as they can severely damage downstream populations and infrastructures. These floods originate at high altitudes and can flow down with enormous energy and change the terrain’s existing morphology. One such devastating event...
