| 1 | Regional representation of glaciers in Chandra Basin region,western Himalaya,India显示文摘Hamtah and Chhota Shigri are two nearby,well monitored glaciers of western Himalaya,lying in the same climatic zone and driven by the same climatic conditions.In this study,topographical characteristics of both the glacier have been explored to understand the role of topography in controlling the glacier response.Further,their topographical characteristics and possible response towards climatic variations have been compared with each other and also with that of the other glaciers in the basin to find out the suitability of these two glaciers to be considered as representative of the region.Multi sensor and multi temporal remote sensing data have been used to carry out to fulfill the objectives.It is found that being in the same climatic zone,the mean accumulation area ratio of Chhota Shigri is 54%and Hamtah is 11%between 1980 and 2014.In comparison to Hamtah,Chhota Shigri glacier has a small upslope area,low compactness ratio indicating the ability of the glacier to receive direct precipitation and solar radiation.The analysis revealed that the Chhota Shigri glacier has a closer resemblance with the other glaciers in the region than Hamtah glacier.Also,the topographical settings of Chhota Shigri glacier are suitable for recording and reflecting year-to-year climatic variations. | Pratima Pandey S.Nawaz Ali AL.Ramanathan P.K.Champati ray G.Venkataraman | 2017 | Geoscience Frontiers2017，8，4： | 0 |
| 2 | Suspended sediment dynamics in the meltwater of Chhota Shigri glacier, Chandra basin, Lahaul-Spiti valley, India显示文摘Present study shows suspended sediment dynamics in the meltwater of Chhota Shigri glacier,Himachal Pradesh,India for different melt seasons during the period 2011-2014.Maximum suspended sediment concentration in the meltwater was found during the month of July 2011,2012 and 2014 constituting to 55.2%,48.3% and 46.9%,respectively.Whereas in 2013,maximum suspended sediment concentration was observed in August accounting for46.1% of the total.On the other hand,maximum suspended sediment load was monitored in the month of July 2011,2012 and 2014 constituting 59.5%,63% and 55.7% of the total,respectively.Whereas in2013,maximum suspended sediment load was observed in the month of August accounting for 49.8% of the total suspended sediment load.Annual distribution of suspended sediment concentration(SSC)and suspended sediment load(SSL)in the Chhota Shigri glacier shows higher value of SSC and SSL during the study period 2012 and 2013,which may be due to the presence of high glacial runoff and negative mass balance of the studied area during these time periods.Marked diurnal variation has been observed in the SSC of meltwater.Strong correlation was observed between SSC and SSL with discharge.On the other hand,SSC and SSL also showed strong exponential correlation with air temperature of the studied area.Sediment yield from the catchment of Chhota Shigri glacier is high during the peak melt season(July and August)and low during the late melt season(September and October).The average value of erosion rate for Chhota Shigri glacier basin during the study period 2011-2014 was calculated to be 1.1mm/yr,which is lower than the average erosion rate of other Himalayan glaciers such as Rakiot,Chorabari and Gangotri glaciers,which may be caused by its geological setting containing high erosion resistant rocks such as granite,granite gneiss and porphyritic granite. | Virendra Bahadur SINGH AL.RAMANATHAN | 2018 | Journal of Mountain Science2018，15，1： | 0 |
