I hadn't heard of #MercantileBank. It's a "US bank with global access" located on crypto bro's second favorite island: Puerto Rico.

It caters to startups, specifically those in digital assets and other shady things like energy transition and "creative entrepeneurship". 🤔 ImageImageImage

(1/4) #Floods are becoming frequent in Himalaya, particularly in the NW #Himalaya that has been related to the increasing impact of changing #climate
@SundriyalY @neh4chauhan @kaushik_kaush5 @firozgeologist
#Uttarakhand, NW #Himalaya has witnessed 2 major flood events in the last decade that killed >6000 people. This study is an attempt to explore the impact of potential flood on river bank slopes in Uttarakhand. (2/4)
We found that #slope material at the exposed #fluvial sequence and slope toe might displace forward ~0.12-0.4 m The potential #debris #flow from the slope may impact the retaining wall, supporting the slope, with a #pressure up to 150 k Pa. (3/4)

🧵Two by @ChawlaSwati

1/ On #Tibet in the Indian imagination:

Yesterday, we looked at how #Tibetans perceived India+ how the @DalaiLama walked in the path of many of his countrymen before him when he came into exile in India.

Let's turn the gaze in the other direction today.
2/ Indians have at least two vantage points from where to view #Tibet. Parts of #Himalayan India border Tibet👇. Thanks to older connections of religious patronage, pilgrimage, and trade, the perspective from these regions is often v. diff from the capital in New Delhi.
~SC Image
3/ Indian cities of Gaya, Sanchi+ Sarnath were imp pilgrimage sites for Tibetan Buddhists; as was Kailash Mansarovar in Tibet for Hindu+ Buddhist pilgrims from India. The imagination of an “Akhand Bharat” (Undivided India) often included #Tibet.

On the @DalaiLama & India:
1/ Many of us know that the 14th @DalaiLama has been living in #exile in #Himalayan town of #Dharamsala in northern India since 31 Mar 1959.

Why India?
Was he blazing a trail w/ his escape?

#TweetHistorians
Map from @TIME (1959)
2/ Second question first: No, he wasn't.

In coming to India, the @DalaiLama trod the path of many #Tibetans before him-- traders+ aristocrats, monastics+ laity, and his predecessor, the 13th #DalaiLama, Thupten Gyatso, who had lived in exile in British India from 1910-12.

--SC
3/ Aristocratic families in #Tibet were closely tied in networks of monastic patronage, intermarriage +trade w/ eastern #Himalayan kingdoms of #Bhutan+ #Sikkim. The British Political Officer in Sikkim kept close watch on these alliances. Here he is w/ the 13th #DalaiLama👇.

Today is International Tiger Day which is celebrated every year to raise awareness for tiger conservation.There was a large population of tigers in Gujarat up to middle age but there is no tiger in Gujarat now. It is amazing fact that there were tigers near Ahmedabad in old time. Image
Tiger hunting was a favourite entertainment game for Indian rulers since ancient time. It was a favourite sport for Sultans of Gujarat in middle age. Halol & Mahemdavad were important hunting places for Gujarat Sultans. Hunting hobby of Indian rulers decreased tiger population.
Tiger hunting was favourite sport & pastime of royals & elites in 19 & early 20th century. It was main tourist attraction of India for Europeans. In British rule,tiger hunting parties were arranged by rulers of princely states in honour of visiting British dignities & officials.

Geological, historical & geophysical observations show that the entire Himalayan arc is poised to produce a sequence of great #earthquake. Human catastrophe likely to be unprecedented. The abstract is scary to the point. @yamunajiye #Uttarakhand #Himalayas pubs.geoscienceworld.org/ssa/srl/articl… Image
It is estimated that due to the average rate of convergence between the Indian and Asian plates, every year adds additional strain on the Main Himalayan Thrust (MHT) that needs an Mw =7.3 #earthquake for release. @yamunajiye @RaajSonak
As per a review of earthquakes in the #Himalayas in past 1000 years; over the past 500 years, there haven’t been enough big earthquakes (Mw = 8 and above) to ease the accumulated strain in large sections of the Himalayan arc.

As the 2021 #UttarakhandDisaster unfolds, we look back at our coverage on India's environment to put it in perspective. #Thread👇
Watch this space for a ground report anchored by @journomayank, plus additional reporting as the science clarifies from @sghstory
In 2018, @journomayank and @kcmouli25 travelled to #Uttarakhand to mark 5 years after the 2013 floods.
"Environmentalists of the region stress that no lesson has been learnt from the disaster so far" ~

@nidmmhaindia @moefcc @yamunajiye
Despite billions of rupees spent on #rehabilitation work following the June 2013 floods, Uttarakhand still bore visible signs of destruction, reported @journomayank and @kcmouli25 in 2018.

Le saviez-vous ? La pratique de l’#alpinisme a été élue en décembre dernier "patrimoine immatériel de l’Unesco".
👉 Retour sur quelques émissions pour mieux comprendre ce sport et ceux qui le pratiquent.🏔️‍

Petit thread en 10 étapes ⬇️ Image
(2/10) À quel moment les hommes ont-ils commencé à gravir les montagnes pour le loisir ? Et pourquoi dit-on "alpinisme" et non pas "montagnisme", par exemple ?
