Mountain Foodways: Future-proofing Mountain Huts Gastronomies for Resiliency and Adaptation to Change
Initial considerations on mountain foodways applied to the management of mountain huts as a touristic destination
Permafrost in the Pyrenees: the changing mountains
The Pyrenean cryosphere is rapidly changing due to climate change, with retreating glaciers and increasing permafrost risks. This study presents ongoing research from the PERMAPYRENEES project, focusi

Mapping Erosion and Deposition Patterns by Dirty Snow Avalanches Using Structure-from-Motion Photogrammetry
Recent shifts in zooplankton community structure: new occurrence of Daphnia longispina in a clear and a nearby glacially turbid alpine lake
Newly arrived Daphnia were present throughout the year in a clear alpine lake, but were absent or present in very low abundances in a nearby glacier-fed lake.
Mapping butterfly species richness and abundance in mountain grasslands – spatial application of a biodiversity indicator
Combining field surveys and remote sensing data offers many opportunities for large-scale biodiversity assessments. We developed such an approach for butterfly diversity in mountain grasslands.
Implementation of Agenda 2030 in the Eastern Mountains of Galicia, Spain: an opportunity for rural development
Mountains are “biodiversity hotspots”, although they also have very fragile ecosystems. From our viewpoint, the implementation of Agenda 2030 will be an opportunity for mountain rural development.
The second Hintereisferner Experiment HEFEX II
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
