Question

What would happen if all the snow in the himalayan mountains melts?

Answer 1

The sand pile becomes saturated with water once the ice melts. These glacier lake outburst floods are more of a concern for the communities likely to be most affected by the Himalayan glacier melt. Such events could impact not just mountain communities, but also those living in the plains. The melting of the Himalayan glaciers will also affect the volume of water in dams and the level of their electricity production.
