| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We investigated short-lived glacial lake that cause the glacier disaster in the northern Tien Shan, Central Asia and Ladakh Range of northwestern India based on field survey and satellite image analysis. Our study got a new knowledge about topographical features of short-lived glacial lake, flood type, characteristics of the damage, and mountain permafrost environment around glacial lakes. To reduce damage of the glacier disaster, we held a glacial lake workshop in the Stock (20 people; Sep 2014) and Gya (140 people; Jul 2015) villages, Ladakh, and the Jeruyi village (80 people; Aug 2015) of Kyrgyz Republic. 80 booklets in Kyrgyz language and English were also delivered for participants of workshop for two regions. We also have a plan to construct early information network with the Kyrgyz Emergency Ministry, to inform the existence of short-lived glacial lakes.
