The team hope the study raises awareness about the rapid
glacier loss in Bolivia, how it could change in the future, and how it could affect water supply and cause glacial
lake outburst floods.
After studying
glacier change, the researchers used their 2014 glacial -
lake observations to identify the
lakes where
outburst floods could occur and present a hazard to populations.
