摘要：
The Miyar glacier is a 28 km. long valley-type galcier with a number of transverse tributary glaciers, encompassing an area of about 110 sq. km of ice and snow in its basin. It has retreated by about 325 m between 1963 and 1983 with an average annual retreat of about 16 m. This phenomenon is comparable with similar recessionery trends of other galciers of Lahaul, which indicates deglaciation period still prevalent in this part of the Himalaya.
