We present time transgressive model outputs using generated glacial surface mass balance and temperature fields, injected into PISM, to improve regional modelling of Andean glaciers.
What matters for the future of Mountain Hay Meadows? A Q-study on Stakeholder views in Austria
Q-method is used to identify different stakeholder group perspectives on the future of mountain hay meadows. The viewpoints help to develop conservation strategies for this endangered habitat type.
Interactions of Debris Flows and In-Channel Protection Measures
Interactions between debris flows and torrent protection measures can have unintended effects.
Guiding Through Change: Vulnerability and Adaptation Among Mountain Guides in the Canadian Rockies
Examines the vulnerability of mountain guides in the Canadian Rockies to climate change, by assessing cryospheric change, its implications for guiding, adaptive responses, and barriers to adaptation.
Measurements and models of water and carbon dioxide fluxes in Alpine grasslands: the Nivolet Observatory at the Gran Paradiso National Park, Italy
The main results of the long-term monitoring programme of water and carbon dioxide fluxes ongoing in a high-altitude grassland in the Western Italian Alps will be presented.
Practical education climate-smart technologies in the foothills of Georgia
Climate change creates difficulties for mountain foothills; It is vital – adaptive approaches in which education play an important role. This is successfully implemented by the SMD faculty
Capacity building to support forest management in protective forests of Slovenia
The Forest Living Lab approach improves protective forest management by integrating science, stakeholders, and adaptive learning to mitigate natural hazards in mountain regions of Slovenia.
Mechanisms of Slope instabilities along the Hill Roads of Nepal: A Case Study from Beni-Jomson Road, Gandaki Province
Instabilities including landslides, rockfalls, topple events, debris flows, and gully erosion, are commonly observed along roads in the Nepal Himalayas.
Rock glacier instabilities in the Central Andes of Chile: unreported cases and implications regarding their origin
Mountain-top bird species face extreme conditions, shaping breeding site selection. We monitored alpine nests in temperate Andes. Rock cavities buffer temperatures, potentially enhancing breeding success and adaptation to harsh weather
Understanding and Enhancing the Visibility and Diversity of Small Rural Businesses
Small Rural Businesses drive regional resilience but are underrepresented in regional development. This study highlights their role and challenges sustaining thriving mountain communities.
