The mountainous region usually witness Natural disasters such as landslides, GLOFs, and flash floods, triggered by factors like river erosion, extreme weathering, heavy rainfall, permafrost thawing, human activities and earthquakes. Extreme weather variations heighten slope destabilization risk in high-altitude areas. Glacial retreat and permafrost melting expand glacial lakes, destabilizing slopes and increasing landslide and flood risks downstream.

The seismic signals can effectively be utilized to understand environmental processes beyond earthquakes. It investigates anthropogenic noise from human activities that affect the accuracy of seismic monitoring. Research related to E.S explores how natural processes like weather patterns, hydrological cycles and land use changes influence seismic signals. For instance, heavy rainfall increases soil saturation and alters seismic wave propagation. Melting glaciers induce seismic activity and isostatic rebound. Environmental seismology monitors landslides, volcanic eruptions, and glacial dynamics, detecting precursory signals for early warning and hazard mitigation. Technological advancements enable precise seismic data collection and analysis, fostering interdisciplinary collaboration of experts in geophysics, hydrology, meteorology, and ecology. This multidisciplinary approach aids in understanding complex Earth processes, natural hazard assessment, resource management, and environmental conservation efforts. Environmental seismology remains crucial for safeguarding communities and ecosystems in a changing world.
