| Περίληψη: | The article focuses on the challenges Nepal faces in early warning and disaster monitoring following catastrophic floods triggered by a glacial collapse in the Himalayas, which killed at least 919 people and left around 4,800 missing. Nepal's National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority (NDRRMA) highlights the lack of high-altitude weather stations and limited transboundary data sharing with China as major obstacles to timely alerts. China has called for enhanced glacier and glacial lake monitoring on the Tibetan Plateau and states it shares information with Nepal, though it is unclear if warnings were issued before the disaster. The floods exposed vulnerabilities in Nepal’s infrastructure and disaster preparedness, prompting plans to improve early-warning systems and cross-border climate data cooperation.
