Glacier-fed lakes in proglacial environments offer insights into sediment dynamics and climate adaptation. Lake Sulzsee shows significant patterns of sedimentation influenced delayed ice melt.
Safer Route Planning on Alpine Glaciers: A New Crevasse Dataset
We present a new crevasse dataset for Alpine glaciers, allowing safer route planning for mountaineers and field researchers.
Combining farming and service activities: a new research avenue for understanding work in farming systems?
Diversification of on-farm activities has emerged as a key strategy to maintain farm viability. New forms of farms providing services on-farm are emerging and challenging work organisation.
Is income enough to understand farm diversification strategies? Unraveling farmers’ labor engagement
Farm diversification has been studied as a way to buffer structural changes and maximize income generation. We identified five types of farm activity diversification in Cape Verde highlands.
Bike, ski and data. How data is changing outdoor sports and nature. A essential tool for sustainable development in outdoor sports.
Digital data shapes outdoor sports, and Digitize the Planet promotes its responsible use to balance recreation and nature conservation.
Prospects and limitations of church forest conservation in Northern Ethiopia
Remote-sensing analysis, field surveys and interviews provide a comprehensive assessment of the ecological status, management approaches and conservation needs of a church forest in Northern Ethiopia.
Recovery of the forest’s protective effect after stand-replacing wind disturbances
A large-scale analysis of windthrow areas in protective forests reveals new insights on the recovery of their protective effect up to 30 years after stand-replacing wind disturbances.
Advancing satellite photogrammetric mapping of snow depth in high alpine terrain: a comparative study between Pléiades PHR and Neo
This study compares Pléiades PHR and Neo for snow depth mapping, showing Neo’s improved resolution and validating an automated cross-matching approach for precise, repeatable mapping in alpine terrain
Sustaining indigenous institution through climate and social uncertainties: Tale of two high mountain communities from Western Nepal
This study explores the social, economic, and cultural factors affecting the sustainability of the Indigenous institution, while identifying opportunities with policy implications.
Unravelling the performance of atmospheric radiative transfer schemes in the simulation of mean surface climate in Central Africa using the RegCM5 climate model
The theory of radiative transfer is essential for studying climate. This research evaluates the capability of the RegCM5 model to reproduce radiative transfer in Central Africa over a ten-year period.
