Temperature shift shrinking Siachen glacier
Couple of days back, I have posted a thread "arrival of mini ice age", and we had discussion that the temparature of earth is going in upward or downward direction?
In continution to that today only I was reading an interesting article for Siachen Glacier, thought of sharing the same with you all s
The Siachen glacier has undergone a shift in temperatures over two decades.
A study has shown that the glacier has warmed between 1ð and 1.5ð Celsius at its ablation zone - where the ice melts - and cooled by about 0.5ð to 1ð Celsius in its accumulation zone - where it bulks up ice.
It was also found that the accumulation zone was shrinking and the ablation zone was expanding....
