Impact of a global temperature rise of 1.5 degrees Celsius on Asia’s glaciers (2017, methodology): “6) in which we sampled five different model input variables: (1) degree–day sum, (2) maximum precipitation, (3) degree–day factor for debris-free ice, (4) debris thickness and (5) observed regional mass balance.”
Continuity of the Mass Loss of the World's Glaciers and Ice Caps From the GRACE and GRACE Follow‐On Missions (2020, background): “In addition, runoff from the melting GIC has a major impact on regional hydrology and freshwater supply, especially in highly populated regions of Central Asia where it affects economic activities and political stability (Bolch et al., 2012; Koppes et al., 2015; Rupper et al., 2012).”
Glacier mass changes on the Tibetan Plateau 2003–2009 derived from ICESat laser altimetry measurements (2014, result): “Our study tends to agree with other studies which show similar regional patterns of glacier changes in the Himalaya (Bolch et al 2012, Kääb et al 2012, Gardelle et al 2013) and on the TP (figure 3) (Yao et al 2012, Gardner et al 2013).”
Changes of glacial lakes and implications in Tian Shan, central Asia, based on remote sensing data from 1990 to 2010 (2013, neutral): “Zhang et al 2012, Yao et al 2012, Bolch et al 2012, Jacob et al 2012, Benn et al 2012, Sorg et al 2012, Gardner et al 2013).”
