One of the important outcomes of this conference was the Third Pole Environment (TPE) assessment report, which discusses new discoveries surrounding the climatic and ecological changes occurring in the Third Pole region (the highest ecosystem in the world, which provides freshwater to many surrounding regions), how human activities are impacting these changes negatively, and the dangerous consequences of an increasingly warmer and wetter climate in this region.

The ground is quite similar to a sponge that way. There’s only so much water it can hold. So, what happens to the excess? What’s it called? And where does it come from?

Whoa, hold on a minute, modern-day Marie Antoinette! It’s not as simple as that. We use water for more than just hydration. It’s an essential component of farming, manufacturing, energy storage, energy generation… the list goes on. And now, that precious water supply is under threat due to, you guessed it, climate change.

But this ice is melting fast, which makes ice cores collected from the poles of increasing scientific value.

Dr. Kattel was instrumental in the establishment of the KCRE CAS-TU, a leading research institute. Today, the institute contributes to global environmental protection and is expected to grow into an active research hub for South and Central Asia.
Dr. Kattel has since worked extensively in the fields of meteorology and climate change. He received the prestigious CAS President’s International Fellowship Initiative in 2016, and continues to work closely with TPE even today.

Studying how plants react to changes in their environment can help us understand ecological feedback and productivity in response to climate change. Keeping this in mind, TPE scientists studied the phenological trends during a unique period from 1998-2012, when global warming had paused. During this hiatus, they found that CO2 absorption had increased.

Nearly 81% of marine life died out during the end-Permian mass extinction (EPME), and it took the Earth another TEN MILLION years to recover.
But for years scholars have debated if the EPME influenced plants as well. Recently, TPE scientists discovered that the EPME did have a major negative impact on plants. How did they find that out? The answer lies in pollen.

But while this ‘Karakoram Anomaly’ might seem like a blessing, scientists at TPE have shown that it is the opposite case. Rapid increases in glacial mass can actually lead to sudden and severe floods in the future. And yes, this is happening because of climate change.

It is not clear how climate warming has affected the net CO2 balance in this region. While warming could thaw the permafrost and release CO2, it may also increase CO2 fixation in plants, countering the loss from permafrost. In a new study, researchers have now shown that the negative feedback from CO2 fixation is much higher than that from permafrost loss and will remain so until the 2090s.

The rapidly rising temperature has however caused the ice to melt faster, that can have a major impact on the temperature, rainfall and water supply in the region. In a new study published in Water Resourced Research, researchers have used a high resolution cryospheric-hydrological model to predict the impact of projected climatic changes on the melting of glaciers. Their findings suggest that an earlier onset of melting will change the timing and magnitude of water availability in the future; adaptation to address food and energy security, biodiversity and livelihood dependent on these water sources, is therefore necessary.
