Uncertainty in the Himalayan energy–water nexus: estimating regional exposure to glacial lake outburst floods

Uncertainty in the Himalayan energy–water nexus: estimating regional exposure to glacial lake outburst floods

Himalayan water resources attract a rapidly growing number of hydroelectric power projects (HPP) to satisfy Asia’s soaring energy demands. Yet HPP operating or planned in steep, glacier-fed mountain rivers face hazards of glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) that can damage hydropower infrastructure...
