New book chapter by Marcus Nüsser, Markus Konz, Nadine Konz, and Ludwig Braun
The newly published book “Nepal: An Introduction to the Natural History, Ecology and Human Environment in the Himalayas,” edited by Georg Miehe, Colin Pendry, and Ram Chaudhary includes the chapter "Rivers, Lakes and Glaciers" by Marcus Nüsser (Head of Department of Geography, South Asia Institute), Markus Konz, Nadine Konz, and Ludwig Braun. The chapter describes the relationship between Nepal's rivers, lakes, glaciers, and climate, and is of relevance not only to Nepal itself but to the wider South Asian region whose water supply derives from the Himalaya.
