Fast-melting Himalayan glaciers has significant implications for hundreds of millions of people who depend on Asia s major river systems for food and energy, say University of Leeds experts.
Himalayan glaciers are melting at an accelerated pace, a new study concluded on Monday, gathering fresh evidence on the loss of ice mass in the Third Pole.
