U.S. scientists to climb Everest, collect data on climate

The team led by John All of Western Washington University plans to spend the next two months in the region collecting samples and studying the ice, snow and vegetation.

They plan to study the colour and mineral content of the snow and ice on higher elevations of the mountains while collecting plants and other vegetation on the foothills, All said. "The more dirt there is, the more pollution accumulated on them and the more light absorption there is, and thus the larger impact on the glaciers," he said.
