00:00One which I will show. Okay. I think I will come to one first. So this is one. And these are all moraine like Dr. Hwangi said. These have got dead ice inside. So these are ice-cored moraine. And when we see them as moraine, we do not understand that there is dead ice. But we will see what has happened in 2025, August.
00:23See the scouring. The evidences of dams. All the gorges are like this. This is the kind of real erosion that we could see. Avalanche stutes which have chronic landslide zones even. And it did not occur in one or two channels.
00:44I am Dr. Swapnamita Videswaran. I am a scientist of Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology. And I have been here almost 25 years. I have been here before. I have been here in the province.
00:58We had a letter from UCOS, and we said that we need a report from the Chief Secretary
01:08about what the status of their status is and what the impact of their status is.
01:12So, we reached there, and we probably reached there in Forte.
01:16And our impact was very good, because we had the SDRF Army,
01:22and the SDRF Army was so much of our cooperation.
01:26So, we had written four days, we finished everything, and we could come back.
01:36And what we saw was that it was a very intense rainfall situation,
01:43which impacted a very short distance.
01:47But definitely, it had all evidence of being triggered,
01:52and actually, this was induced by climate change.
01:56Because, with the melting of climate change,
01:58or the moraine, the dead ice,
02:01the dead ice melting over time,
02:05we also saw the satellite data.
02:08And at that time, the high-intensive rainfall,
02:11the moraine collapsed, it exposed the dead ice.
02:16It flushed out more in material.
02:19But then, that was not what impacted.
02:21What impacted was all the water.
02:23It was so much rain,
02:25and I have also seen the slope in the presentation,
02:28what the height of the slope was.
02:30It was a real erosion.
02:31But, the data of the rain has been on our planet.
02:34It has come from different places.
02:36We had a very confusion,
02:37that the valley, our stations are in the valley.
02:40It is in the sea.
02:41There is a sea.
02:42There is a maniery.
02:43But there was no station in our high altitude.
02:45And, that's why we didn't know that we had to quantify how much intensity we had to quantify.
02:53But, when we went to the ground,
02:55and these are the evidence that you have to quantify.
