These are not glaciers, but remnants of avalanches (left), and this is not the Fedchenko Glacier, but the Grum-Grshimailo Glacier (right). Please correct this. Thank you.

The study cited in these media articles examines only one [!] glacier (Kyzylsu, red area in map below), located outside both the Pamirs and the ‘Pamir–Karakoram anomaly.’ From such limited data, it is impossible to generalize to all of Tajikistan—yet another case of media distortion for headlines.

9 June is International Archives Day.

One of the largest archives on Central Asia:

THE PAMIR ARCHIVE

But also the least known archive.

Would you like to join me in changing that?

Greetings from The Pamir Archive!

We not only have historical photographs of towns, landscapes and people, but also, for example, photos of the largest unexplored (and actually also unknown) petroglyph field in Central Asia with hundreds of carvings, waiting to be scientifically researched.
