Spatial variability in mass loss of glaciers in the Everest region, central Himalayas, between 2000 and 2015
Region-wide averaging of Himalayan glacier mass change has masked any catchment or glacier-scale variability in glacier recession; thus the role of a number of glaciological processes in glacier wastage remains poorly understood. In this study, we quantify mass loss rates over the period 2000–2015 f...
