Research (8)
Glacial Lake Observatory (GLO): annual dataset of glacial lakes in Nepal and transboundary catchments (2017–2024)
An annual, satellite-derived record of glacial lakes across Nepal and its transboundary basins, mapped with deep learning from Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 imagery.
Identifying optimal subwatershed delineation thresholds using variance-based segmentation in the Central Himalaya
A statistical method for deciding how finely to divide steep Himalayan catchments into sub-watersheds, replacing arbitrary manual choices.
An improved framework to prioritize sub-watersheds: construction of Watershed Morphometric Composite Index (WMCI) for mountain soil conservation
A composite index that combines linear, areal and relief measurements of catchments to rank which mountain sub-watersheds most need soil conservation.
Ecological and anthropogenic drivers of leopard (Panthera pardus fusca) attack occurrence on humans in Nepal
Spatial modelling of where and why common leopard attacks on people occur in Nepal, to help target conflict prevention.
Rapidly Expanding Glacial Lakes in Nepal Himalaya
A satellite time series of moraine-dammed glacial lakes in Nepal, identifying the fastest-growing lakes and the outburst flood hazard they pose.
Evaluation of Glacial Lake Outburst Flood Susceptibility Using Multi-Criteria Assessment Framework in Mahalangur Himalaya
A multi-criteria framework for judging how susceptible glacial lakes in the Everest region are to outburst floods.
Glacial Lakes in the Nepal Himalaya: Inventory and Decadal Dynamics (1977–2017)
A national inventory of glacial lakes in Nepal from optical satellite data, tracing how their number and area changed over four decades.
Perceptions of agro-pastoralists towards the change in temperature and precipitation in the trans-Himalayan regions of Nepal
