- More about Himalaya: Dynamics of a Giant, Geodynamic Setting of the Himalayan Range
The Himalaya is a complex mountain belt with a rich history of geoscience research, revealing its dynamics and natural hazards. Advances in geoscience have opened up questions about the initial stages of Himalayan building, lateral variations in its structures, tectonic forcing, tectonic-climate coupling, and assessments of the natural hazards affecting this area. This three-volume book provides key elements used by researchers to unravel the many processes acting in the Himalayan dynamics, with a focus on mountain environments and climate change.

The Himalaya, renowned as the world's largest and highest mountain belt, has undergone significant advancements in geoscience over the past few decades, unveiling a complex picture of its dynamics. This vast mountain range has sparked questions about its initial formation, lateral variations in its structures, tectonic forcing, tectonic-climate coupling, and assessments of natural hazards. In this three-volume book, we aim to present the current knowledge on the building and present-day behavior of the Himalayan range, providing key elements for researchers to unravel the numerous processes at play in its dynamics. Mountain environments, particularly in the Himalayas, are highly susceptible to climate change, with glacier retreat, landslides, flash floods, and water availability posing significant challenges. Understanding the delicate balance that governs the Himalayan giant's dynamics is now more crucial than ever, making it a major challenge for the scientific community.
