Main publication details
MARC recordPresent and past patterns of glaciation in the northwest Himalaya: climatic, tectonic and topographic controls / Jonathan A. Holmes.
| Title: | Present and past patterns of glaciation in the northwest Himalaya: climatic, tectonic and topographic controls / Jonathan A. Holmes. |
| Author(s): | Holmes, Jonathan A. |
| Date: | 1993. |
| Publisher: | London: Routledge |
| Abstract: | Reports new information on past and present distribution of glaciers in Kashmir, and compares with previous work from elsewhere in north-west Himalaya. Patterns of modern glacierization indicate strong influence of precipitation; hence, modern equilibrium-line altitude gradients reflect precipitation gradients. |
| Notes: | Offprint: Himalaya to the sea. Geology, geomorphology and the Quaternary / John F. Schroder, Jr., ed. |
