    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract The Himalaya mountains contain not only one of the largest concentrations of ice outside the polar regions, but contribute to the hydrological requirements of large populations spread over seven nations. The exceptionally high elevations of this low-latitude cryosphere presents a natural laboratory and archives to study climate–tectonics interactions as well as regional v. global climate influences. The existing base-level data on the Himalayan cryosphere are highly variable. Several climate fluctuations occurred during the late Quaternary (MIS1–MIS5, especially the last c. 100 ka), which led to the evolution of the Himalayan landscape. Detailed studies of these archives, along with those of the present cryosphere and related hydrosphere, are essential for understanding the controls on present and future hydrology of the glacial-fed mountain rivers. This volume, a follow-up of the XII International Symposium on Antarctic Earth Science, Goa (A SCAR symposium), provides new data from locales spread over the entire Himalaya region and from Tibet. It provides a glimpse of the late Quaternary cryosphere, as well as a discussion in the last section on sustainability in the context of geohazard mitigations as well as the hydrological budget.

    An introduction to the crustal evolution of India and Antarctica: the supercontinent connection (2017)
    Geological Society (of London)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-08-23
    Description: Extract Perhaps the most important advance in our knowledge of the Precambrian Earth over the last three decades has been the general consensus on the episodic nature of the amalgamation and dispersal of supercontinents (e.g. Rogers 1996; Condie & Aster 2010; Nance et al. 2014). The Precambrian history of the Earth is thought to be punctuated by the assembly and breakdown of at least three supercontinents: Columbia (Nena), Rodinia and Gondwana (Fig. 1; e.g. McMenamin & McMenamin 1990; Rogers & Santosh 2002; Meert 2012). ...

    Heavy mineral assemblage of marine sediments as an indicator of provenance and east antarctic ice sheet fluctuations (2017)
    Geological Society (of London)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-09-30
    Description: Records of fluctuations of the East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) are best preserved in proximal marine sediments. The examined section is a part of a drillcore at Site U1359 of IODP (Integrated Oceanic Drilling Program) 318 located at the eastern levee of Jussieau submarine channel off the coast of Wilkes Land. Drillcore U1359 from 200 m below seafloor (mbsf) to 600 mbsf represents samples from Mid-Miocene to Late Miocene. Heavy media separation, characterization of heavy minerals and quantification of their population were carried out using scanning electron microscopy and electron microprobe analysis. Relative abundance of various minerals at different depths revealed that amphiboles and pyroxene show antipathic relationship at some depths. Multiple sources for supply of sediments at drillhole Site U1359 have been proposed with both magmatic and metamorphic minerals and rock fragments contributing clastic sediments. Factor analysis was carried out to test this inference. Six factors were obtained out of which the first three explain 76.6% of the variance. Relating variability of the factors to the provenance allows inference of four major ice advance phases during Mid to Late Micene which are largely positively correlatable with the global climate record. Supplementary material: Table showing the linear relationship between the rows and columns of the matrix of correlation coefficients of samples is available at https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.c.3805726

    A precipitation perspective of the Hydrosphere-cryosphere interaction in the Himalaya (2017)
    Geological Society (of London)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-10-11
    Description: The hydrological budget of the three major Asian rivers, namely the Indus, the Ganga and the Brahmaputra, is controlled by the Indian monsoon and Westerlies but their contribution in these basins are highly variable. Widely varying average annual precipitation has been reported within these basins. A poor network of in situ rain gauges, particularly in mountainous regions, inaccessible terrain, high variations in altitude and the significantly large size of basins forces adaption of satellite-based average annual precipitation. We investigate precipitation patterns for these three basins by using satellite-based Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM-3B42) data and compare and validate it with Asian Precipitation Highly Resolved Data Integration Towards Evaluation (APHRODITE) and India Meteorological Department (IMD) interpolated gridded precipitation data. The entire basins as well as basinal areas within the geographic limits of India have been considered. Our study shows that the precipitation broadly follows an east–west and north–south gradient control. The easternmost Brahmaputra Basin has the highest amount of precipitation followed by the Ganga Basin, and the westernmost Indus Basin has the least precipitation; precipitation is highest on the higher elevations than compared to lower elevations of the basins. A seasonal- and elevation-based approach is adapted to estimate snow precipitation and is discussed in terms of overall precipitation.

    Formation and breaching of two palaeolakes around Leh, Indus valley, during the late Quaternary (2017)
    Geological Society (of London)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-10-05
    Description: Of the several types of Quaternary deposits formed by glacial, alluvial and mass-wasting processes, with vast climatic and tectonic significance lake deposits stand out prominently in the Indus valley around the town of Leh. We studied a number of palaeolake deposits between the Zinchan–Indus confluence and Shey village and carried out optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) quartz dating of samples from critical sections. Our results indicate that, during the late Quaternary, the Indus River was dammed at least twice in the narrow gorge downstream of Spituk Gompa, forming a reservoir up to 35 km long in which 20–68 m thick sediments were deposited under fluvial and lacustrine environments. During the older phase, the Indus was blocked by debris of moraines/landslides in the narrow zone near the Zinchan–Indus confluence. The resulting lake existed between c. 125 ± 11 and 87 ± 8 ka during marine isotopic stage (MIS) 5. No evidence of damming material is preserved. Present-day elevations of lake deposits suggest a possible extension of the lake up to Ranbirpura upstream. After the lake breach, the Indus River was again dammed near Phey village by the advancing alluvial fan of the Phyang River. This lake, extending up to Karu, formed at c. 79 ± ka. The lake existed in this phase during c. 72–49 ka, during cold-stage MIS-4. The lake was breached after c. 46 ± 3 ka, however.
