| Description |
English: Ama Dablam (6856 m) and Imja valley seen from the same photo point in 2007. Warming temperatures have contributed to the recession of more than a hundred metres of ice, seen to the left of Ama Dablam (the vertical black line farthest to the left in the old photo). The dramatic melting of glaciers and ice witnessed at lower altitudes is not yet seen at higher altitudes where the temperatures are much lower, and remain below zero even after warming. However, with continuing rising temperatures the temperatures may rise above zero and even the high altitude glaciers will become more susceptible, and liable to shrink.

Auf der linken Seite des Ama Dablam haben die steigenden Temperaturen zur Abschmelzung von Hunderten von Metern von Eis beigetragen (gezeigt durch die senkrechte schwarze Linie ganz links im alten Foto). Das dramatische Abschmelzen der Gletscher, das in niedrigeren Lagen beobachtet werden kann, hat sich noch nicht auf die höheren Lagen ausgewirkt, da dort oben die Temperaturen geringer sind und aucch nach einer Erwärmung unter Null Grad bleiben. Aufgrund der ständing steigenden Temperaturen ist es jedoch möglich, dass sie auch in den höheren Lagen auf über Null Grad steigen, was dazu führen kann, dass die Gletscher hoch oben anfälliger werden und auch beginnen abzuschmelzen.

Le réchauffement a entraîné le retrait de la glace sur plus de 100 mètres, à gauche de l'Ama Dablam (la ligne noire verticale la plus éloignée sur la gauche de l'ancienne photo). La spectaculaire fonte des glaciers en basse altitude ne se ressent pas encore sur les glaciers de haute altitude où les températures restent plus basses et demeurent inférieures à zéro malgré le réchauffement. Néanmoins, avec des températures qui continuent de se réchauffer et qui pourrait passer au-dessus de zéro, les glaciers de haute altitude deviendraient plus vulnérables et risqueraient alors de diminuer à leur tour.
