  • Glacial melting in the Tibetan Plateau affects the water resources of millions of people. This study finds that—partly owing to changes in atmospheric circulations and precipitation patterns—the most intensive glacier shrinkage is in the Himalayan region, whereas glacial retreat in the Pamir Plateau region is less apparent.

  • South Asian black carbon’s pairing activities (direct and indirect effects) are driving glacial mass decline of the so-called “Water Tower of Asia” with the potential to threaten future water resources for the countries that rely upon its source.

  • South Asian black carbon emissions have significantly accelerated glacier mass loss on the southern Tibetan Plateau, primarily through albedo-driven melt and precipitation reduction, resulting in a 33.7% decline in solid water storage, according to a systematic assessment of radiative and hydrological impacts from 2007 to 2016.
