Nepal glacier saw exceptional heat before collapse caused deadly floods, says researcher
PARIS, Sept 8 — The mountain section whose collapse triggered fatal floods in Nepal and China on August 26 had experienced unprecedented heat for the time of year, meteorological data analysed by a researcher shows.Average temperatures on the mountain glacier at an altitude of 5,200 metres were estimated at around five degrees Celsius between August 21 and 26.This is exceptionally high.They had not exceeded 4 degrees Celsius over the same period…
