5、iers appear to be declining at rates equal to or greater than long-established trends, according to early results from a joint NASA and United States Geological Survey (USGS) project designed to provide a global assessment of glaciers. At the same time, a small minority of glaciers are advancing.Sci
6、entists monitor only a few of Indias vital glaciers, which are receding by as much as 100 feet each year.Billions of people in China and the Indian subcontinent rely on South Asias Himalayan glaciers the worlds largest store of fresh water outside the polar ice caps. The massive ice floes feed seven
7、 of the worlds greatest Asian rivers in one of the worlds most densely populated regions.Yet as global climate change slowly melts glaciers from Africa to the Andes, scientists say the glaciers in the Himalayas are retreating air a rate of about 33 to 49 feet each yearfaster than in any other part o
8、f the world.In the Himalayas, the Gangotri Glacier, one of Indias largest, is entitled to an even more dubious distinction. Recent studies reveal that the Gangotri, which forms a mass of ice about 18 miles long, is retreating at a rate of more than 100 feet a year. But according to government offici
9、als and environmental groups like Greenpeace, very little has been done in the way of a rigorous scientific study. Scientists are monitoring glacial melting on only a handful of the 7,000 glaciers that cover the Indian Himalayas.While ice reflects the suns rays, lake water absorbs and transmits heat
10、 more efficiently to the underlying ice, kicking off a feedback that creates further melting. And at such a rapid retreat, a gradual increase in droughts, flash floods, and landslides are not the only issue to worry about, say environmentalists. Glacier changes in the next 100 years could significan
11、tly affect agriculture, water supplies, hydroelectric power, transportation, mining, coastlines, and ecological habitats. Just whenpower companies are planning more energy sources to power Indias growing economy, a rising level of sediment in regional rivers is creating havoc for many grids.The powe
12、r grid in Uttarkashi is constantly breaking down and thats because of the rise in sediment in the water being used at the hydro-power projects, says Joseph Thsetan Gergan from the WADIA Institute of Himalayan Glaciology, a part of the Indian Department of Science and Technology. When the power break
13、s down, the people blame the Geological Survey of India or the Central Water Commission for not doing its work properly, but thats like thinking of digging a well when your house is already on fire.While the Gangotri has been retreating since measurements began in 1842, the rate of retreat, which wa
14、s around 62 feet per year between 1935 and 1971, has almost doubled. Global warming is causing Himalayan glaciers to rapidly retreat, threatening to cause water shortages for hundreds of millions of people who rely on glacier-dependent rivers in China, India and Nepal. In northwest China, the Qingha
15、i Plateaus wetlands have seen declining lake water levels, lake shrinkage, the absence of water flow in rivers and streams and the degradation of swamp wetlandsAn added difficulty, says Mr. Gergan, is the lack of a sustained research effort since the 1970s. The Indian governments own recommendations, issued in March 2002 by the standing committee on Science and Technology, noted that glacial melting required immediate implementation of a program to measure and monitor the changes to the Gangotri and its impact on the Ganges river systems.Its not enough to just note the fact that
