- Bottom row- Left to right:
- The long-term mass loss trend over the Sikkim Himalaya (linear trend and inter-annual variability) during April 2002–May 2023.
- Long-term variability (total precipitation, mean maximum temperature, and mean minimum temperature) in climate data was observed at Gangtok Automatic Weather Station on an Annual and seasonal scale from 1990 to 2017.
