A few excerpts:

"NEW DELHI, APRIL 26: Scientists have developed the first model that
shows the impact of melting glaciers on Himalayan rivers, Brahmaputra,
Ganges and the Indus. And the news is disturbing...

...The results were obtained keeping four climate change scenarios with
increasing and decreasing temperature and precipitation...

...Near the Brahmaputra source, there is general decrease in decadal
mean flows for ALL temperature scenarios as glaciers are few in the area
and flows recede as the permanent snow cover reduces with increasing
temperature..."
