"Save Himalayan ecosystem and predict floods"


"Save Himalayan ecosystem and predict floods"
The Issue
as 2013 floods of Uttarakhand and 2021 flood again in the same region caused by a GLOF(global lake outburst flood) in the Himalayan ecosystem region.
solution by the participation of locals, geologist, institution, and government
as we have a case study of its adaptation
CDAC has deployed India's first GLOF Early Warning System for Sikkim to predict GLOFs, which will help the Government authorities in case of an impending GLOF event. The GLOF Early Warning System has the following capabilities:
(a)Water Level Sensor has been deployed at Shakho Chho Glacial Lake, Sikkim.
(b)The near-real-time sensors transmit data through INSAT satellite to control centre at Gangtok.
(c)The flood simulation model runs the simulation for various GLOF scenarios. The model is capable of presenting Flood Simulation, Inundation information, and Flood Arrival Time, in the event of a glacier lake outburst flood.
I want to highlight this adaptation technique to government. citizens and institution
