MARC recordGlacial response to climate change and epeirogeny in the Nepalese Himalaya / Maynard M. Miller, Richard A. Marston.
| Title: | Glacial response to climate change and epeirogeny in the Nepalese Himalaya / Maynard M. Miller, Richard A. Marston. |
| Author(s): | Miller, Maynard M. Marston, Richard A. |
| Date: | 1989. |
| Publisher: | Moscow, ID: Foundation for Glacier and Environmental Research and University of Idaho ; |
| In: | Environment and society in the Manaslu-Ganesh region of the central Nepal Himalaya; a final report of the 1987 Manaslu-Ganesh Expedition, University of Idaho, Foundation for Glacier and Environmental Research. (1989.), |
| Abstract: | Presents broad picture of present state of glaciers along Himalayan chain and describes features of glacial geology indicative of pattern of Pleistocene glaciation. Evidence suggests that terminal thinning by ablation and surface lowering has taken place in this century, especially in recent decades. Provides basis for consideration of global warming, discussed in same volume. |
