Increased sediment availability resulting from climate change poses a specific hazard a mountain river confluences.
Climate Adaptation using indigenous techniques- A Case Study of Gilgit Baltistan Pakistan
Use of indigenous practices for Glacier grafting, Avalanche harvesting and Ice Stupa Development
Where and when does rockfall occur? Influence of glacier and permafrost retreat on high mountain rockfall
Our study shows that high alpine rockfall occurs mainly in areas affected by permafrost and glacier retreat. The mountaineering community can help investigate the trigger and timing of rockfalls.
Revitalisation of an inland and mountainous area through an educational horticulture project and a European programme: the case of Bergolo in Alta Langa
The study presents an educational horticulture project in an inland area of Italy, showing the role of Erasmus+ programmes in supporting this practice.
Unfreezing the Dynamics: Exploring Thermohydraulic Interplay in Frozen Soils Under a Changing Climate
Climate change drives more winter precipitation and complex freeze-thaw dynamics in mountain soils. Our experiments reveal altered infiltration and runoff, essential for future hydrological modelling.
Territorial transition in Ligurian Alps. The case of BeyondSnow Alpine Space Project
In the contribution, it is presented the theoretical and methodological approach of analysis and the co-design laboratorial activities applied in the research action developed in the pilot area.
Three decades of vegetation change in the high-elevation zone of the Tyrolean Alps
Based on 30-year vegetation monitoring data in the alpine to nival zone of the Central Alps, we show changes in species abundances in relation to their thermal niches.
From Challenges to Resilience: An Integrated Development Model for Mountain Communities
Integrated development in the youngest Himalayan state in India focuses on healthcare, education, livelihoods, and resource management challenges. Aarohi is a grassroots NGO, is tackling these issues.
Heritage, activism and guardianship: a way toward cultural sustainability? The example of the Alpine chapel of St. Erim and its landscape
The heritagisation of the Alpine chapel of St. Erim (South-Western Alps) and its landscape is discussed within the frame of cultural sustainability.
Gravimetry: a powerful monitoring method for alpine cryological and hydrogeological processes
Measuring Δg using a portable gravimeter lets us “see” underground to measure ground ice and groundwater storage changes!
