Monitoring flood risk evolution reveals dynamic changes driven by climate, land use, and socio-economic factors, offering insights into extending risk monitoring frameworks to multi-hazard risk.
Beneath the surface: How the declining health of Pinus mugo impairs soil carbon storage
Declining mountain pine health and associated die-off initially increases soil carbon storage, but leads to substantial long-term carbon losses.
Vulnerable Alpine Infrastructure in Climate Change: AV.GEO.CLIM – Enhancing Risk Awareness and Trail Safety in Mountain Environments
The AV.GEO.CLIM project analyzes climate change-induced natural hazards in alpine regions, focusing on risk mapping, communication, and adaptation strategies to enhance both trail safety and managemen
Application of socio-ecological land use models in the LTSER platform Eisenwurzen (Austria)
To analyse drivers of land use change, we developed the land-use model SECLAND which makes a crucial contribution to the integration of local, actor-centred research in LTSER platforms.
Characterizing Near-Surface Turbulence Over Valley Glaciers Using Multi-Level Eddy Covariance and Infrared Imaging
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
How can local agroecological food systems contribute to food sovereignty in the valleys of northwestern Argentina?
This transdisciplinary research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of local agroecological food systems in strengthening food sovereignty in northwestern Argentina, and to inform more equitable agricu
Evaluating Phenological trends of difference vegetation types in response to climate change over the Eastern Himalayan in India
The study explores the vegetation phenological trends in the Eastern Himalayas of India from 2000 to 2024, using the MODIS-based Enhanced Vegetation Index (EVI) dataset.
Food System Dynamics in the European Alpine Space: Exploring the Impact of Dietary Shifts
Dietary shifts in the European Alpine Space could enhance food self-sufficiency, reduce the land footprint and support EU Green Deal targets through sustainable agriculture and regional food policies
OLYMPUS – Spatio-temporal analysis of mediterranean treeline patterns: a multiscale approach
Treeline patterns and dynamics are revealed by integrating multiple disciplines (remote sensing, forest landscape ecology, dendroecology) and spatial scales (region-landscape-tree) in the OLYMPUS proj
The Role of the European Center for Cloud Ambient Intercomparison (ECCINT) within ACTRIS and the Topical Center for Cloud In Situ Measurements (CIS)
ECCINT advances cloud research by intercomparing in situ measurements at Sonnblick Observatory, improving our understanding of cloud properties and their role in climate and weather systems.
