Ice cover loss and debris cover evolution in the Afghanistan Hindu Kush Himalaya between 2000 and 2020
Glaciers in Afghanistan are crucial elements for water resource and summer river flows. They are also threatened by rapid climate warming. This study presents an up-to-date assessment of ice cover loss for the entire country over two periods, 2000–2008 and 2008–2020, using newly developed remote sen...
