Himalayan Glacier Observation & Melt-Rate Study – Manang
Installation of an automated glacier monitoring station to measure ice melt, temperature, and surface movement.
Under this project, IHRR deployed an advanced automatic weather and glacier monitoring station near Khangsar Glacier. The system gathers hourly climate and melt-rate data, supporting national climate modeling. Findings help identify glacial lake expansion and potential GLOF risks for downstream communities.
Station installed, calibration completed, and six months of continuous data collected. Final report submitted to the ministry.
