| Περίληψη: | The article focuses on the challenges Nepal faces in early warning and monitoring of high-altitude weather and glacial hazards, highlighted by recent catastrophic floods that killed at least 800 people and left over 3,000 missing. Nepal's National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority (NDRRMA) cites a lack of weather stations in mountainous areas and limited trans-boundary data sharing with China as major obstacles to timely disaster alerts. The floods were triggered by a glacial collapse, exposing vulnerabilities in monitoring infrastructure amid warming temperatures destabilizing glaciers and slopes. Efforts to improve early-warning systems and cross-border data cooperation are underway to better protect lives, infrastructure, and the region’s tourism-dependent economy.
