Aims and Tasks

Characterize the chemical composition and levels of atmospheric

pollutants, depict their spatial and seasonal variation over the HTP.

Identify the sources of atmospheric pollutants and reveal the

transport pathway and mechanisms of trans-boundary

atmospheric pollution to the HTP.

Investigate the role of atmospheric pollutants (deposited as LAIs)

in the melting of glacier and snow cover and further quantify the

contribution of LAIs to the glacier and snowpack melting.

Determine the fate of environment-relevant pollutants within

glacier and snowpack and their scavenging process during

snow/ice melting.

Assess the impact of atmospheric pollution on the cryospheric

changes over the HTP
