Tectonic stress influences groundwater flow in mountain environments by altering bedrock hydraulic properties. This study models these effects, revealing significant impacts on groundwater discharge a
Digitalization and Open Data for Sustainable Mountain Tourism: The EUMA Federated Approach to Trail, Hut, and Climbing Area Management
The EUMA database leverages open data to support decision-making in mountain tourism, ensuring adaptive management of trails, huts, and climbing areas amid climate change challenges.
A coupled cryosphere-hydrology-crop model for the integrated assessment of water and food security in the Third Pole region
SPHY model is coupled with the LPJmL model to simultaneously simulate the upstream cryospheric processes and the downstream hydrology, irrigation and crop growth.
Networking: how the river network shapes spatiotemporal drought behavior
Spatiotemporal evolution of streamflow drought is influenced by the river network. We use complex network theory to identify spatiotemporal drought relationships between river branches and basins.
Dynamics of Land-Use/Land-Cover Change in Nubra Valley, Ladakh, India
Himalayan geosystem Analysis, degradation due to Land use land cover change.
Adaptation Pathways to foster Water Governance under Climate Change in Mountain Regions: A case study from Valle dei Laghi (Italy)
This study develops adaptation pathways to support sustainable water governance in mountain areas, balancing competing demands through stakeholder engagement and innovative solutions.
Combining glaciological field surveys and high-resolution regional climate modelling to assess variability in accumulation and melt on glaciers of the Pamir mountains
The regional climate model MAR has been used to generate a high-resolution atmospheric reanalysis covering the last decades for the Pamir mountains.
Potentials and challenges of the free SPOT 5 HRS stereo archive to derive glacier elevation changes: an evaluation in the alpine region and Iceland
The SPOT 5 HRS archive provides high-resolution DEMs via stereo photogrammetry, enabling regional glacier elevation change estimates from the early 2000s, crucial for long-term geodetic mass balances.
Change Characteristics and Influencing Factors of Grassland Degradation in Adjacent Areas of the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau and Suggestions for Grassland Restoration
Grasslands near the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau degrade due to climate and socioeconomic factors. Restoration needs reducing cultivated land, controlling livestock, and improving ecological education.
Grazing reduced vegetation biomass and root nutrition related to plateau zokor creating mounds in summer on the Tibetan Plateau
Before assessing the impact of plateau zokors, it is important to consider grazing regimes, as they create mounds during the summer in summer pastures due to the reduced crude protein content in roots
