Record #99461:

Comparative accumulation regimes on Himalayan and Alaskan neves and the issue of global warming / Maynard M. Miller.

Title: Comparative accumulation regimes on Himalayan and Alaskan neves and the issue of global warming / Maynard M. Miller.
Author(s): Miller, Maynard M.
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: Earlier studies on accumulation zone (névé) of Khumbu glacier provide framework for discussing negative regime of glacier termini over past 30 to 40 years, both in Himalayas and in Alaska. This is manifested by increased downwasting of low-level ice and could be signal of recent unusual changes in composition and behaviour of global atmosphere, now beginning to show effects on Himalayan climate.
