What triggered the devastating floods in Nepal’s Rasuwa region? 🌊🏔️
This disaster was linked to a glacier/ice mass collapse and avalanche activity, which rapidly released huge volumes of water, ice and debris into the river system. The cascading flow then intensified downstream, causing destructive flash flooding.
This is a stark reminder of how glacial hazards, steep Himalayan terrain and extreme geomorphic processes can combine to create sudden disasters.
Prayers for Nepal and everyone affected. 🇳🇵
