Spring tropical cyclones modulate near-surface isotopic compositions of atmospheric water vapour in Kathmandu, Nepal Open
While westerlies are recognized as a significant moisture transport in Nepal during the pre-monsoon season, precipitation is also attributed to moisture from cyclones originating in the Bay of Bengal (BoB) or the Arabian Sea (AS). Tropical…

Identifying the natural and agricultural impacts on the glaciochemistry of the Aru ice core on the northwestern Tibetan Plateau Open
Glaciochemical data sourced from ice cores in polar regions and the Alps have been extensively examined. However, quantitative studies on glaciochemical records of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) are scarce. To address this, we investigated annua…
