Numerical modelling of past retreat and future evolution of Chhota Shigri glacier in Western Indian Himalaya

The history of glacier length fluctuations serves as a reliable indicator of the past climate. In this paper, a numerical flowline model has been used to study the relationship between length variations of Chhota Shigri glacier and local climate since 1876. The simulated front positions of Chhota Sh...
