Abstract
Further, different rate of fluctuation observed in different glaciers indicate that the glaciers are not uniformly responding with change in climatic conditions, especially with respect to global warming. Such observations and present study suggest that fluctuation of a glacier is not only controlled by global warming induced temperature but also governed by characteristics of the glacier and local morphological factors. Hence, the analysis of the pattern of retreat, ELA and retreat related morphological zones, provide real information and precise glacial history of the area.
