Fortnight-Long Study Begins At High-Risk Glacial Lakes In Sikkim
Sikkim, which has been withstanding the perils of climate change, has started a first-of-its-kind fortnight-long study to evaluate the volume, depth, and longitudinal profile of six high-risk glacial lakes. The Glacial Lake Susceptibility Assessment Study (GLSAS) will help characterize the physical dimensions of the lakes using a bathymetry.
