    SROCC Second Order Draft Government and Expert Review Comments - Chapter 2 Comment Chapter From From To To Comment Chapter Team Response id page line page line 2257 2 0 0 0 0 Excellent comprehensive and rich report. I have only few rather technical remarks. A more Taken into account – sentence included in permafrost section general recommendation relates to the new landscapes which are rapidli forming in deglaciating mountain areas and need comprehensive anticipation/modeling/treatment. This is an emerging research field (Haeberli, W. (2017): Integrative modelling and managing new landscapes and environments in de-glaciating mountain ranges: An emerging trans- disciplinary research field. Forestry Research and Engineering: International Journal 1(1). doi:10.15406/freij.2017.01.00005). This could be more strongly emphasized, for instance, in section 2.4 on page 47 an don page 5, line 53. Such new landscapes will be characterized by strong and long-lasting disequilibria, especially concerning slope stability, sediment cascades or eco-systems. One important factor thereby is the strongly different response time of cryosphere components: snow = almost immediate, mountain glaciers = years to decades, mountain permafrost =decades to centuries to even millennia. As an example, in many mountain chains, permafrost inside high peaks will probably continue to exist (far out of thermal equilibrium) when glaciers will have already long disappeared.

Received: 29 November 2019; Accepted: 18 January 2020; Published: 28 January 2020 Abstract: Yak (Bos grunniens L.) herding plays an important role in the domestic economy throughout much of the Asian highlands. Yak represents a major mammal species of the rangelands found across the Asian highlands from Russia and Kyrgyzstan in the west to the Hengduan Mountains of China in the east. Yak also has great cultural significance to the people of the Asian highlands and is closely interlinked to the traditions, cultures, and rituals of the herding communities. However, increasing issues like poverty, environmental degradation, and climate change have changed the traditional practices of pastoralism, isolating and fragmenting herders and the pastures they have been using for many years.

  • Sustainable Agriculture Land Use Pattern and Water Resource Management in the Himalayan Geomorphology of Ladakh Since Centuries
    HCG22-05 Japan Geoscience Union Meeting 2018 Sustainable Agriculture Land Use Pattern and Water Resource Management in the Himalayan Geomorphology of Ladakh since Centuries *S Arun Das1, Amin Noori Deldar2, Kazuko Tatsumi3, Koichi Kimoto4 1.

Professor, Faculty of Economics, Fukuoka University, JAPAN., 4. Professor, Center for Hands-on Learning Programs, Kwansei Gakuin University, Hyogo Himalaya is known for lofty mountains, and an intermix of glacial and fluvial denudation. Because of high altitude and snow melt streams, the vegetative cover is seen only along the river banks and in the open valleys. Ladakh Himalayas are situated in the North Eastern part of Jammu Kashmir State of Indian Union. In this mountainous region, there are many settlements situated at various altitudes varying from 3500 to 5300 meters, which are deprived of Electric city and motor-able road. These villages have taken origin purely on the natural guidance of geomorphology, the altitude and the availability of water. The main objective of this paper is to highlight the significance of the geomorphology in the origin of the settlements as early as 500 years ago. Secondly, an overall analysis of terrain and the land use pattern are focused to reveal the agriculture, housing and water resource management. Thirdly, this paper highlights the role of geomorphology based land use, occupation and livelihood(Including Tourism) as an indicators of long lasted Sustainability.
