By situating glacial loss within the broader social construction of nature and human-more-than-human relations, I argue that loss is not merely a rupture but a generative force.
Exploring spatio-temporal characteristics of extreme rainfall events in the tropical Andes
Extreme rainfall characteristics in the Ecuadorian Andes are analyzed using high-resolution radar data, identifying different rainfall patterns for 3 classes of extreme events.r
A Revision of the 1987 Parraguirre Ice-Rock Avalanche in the Semi-Arid Andes of Chile
We revisit the Parraguirre Ice-Rock Avalanche by integrating new insights from remote sensing, climate and hydrological records as well as process-based modelling.
Assessing the Added Value of Convection-Permitting Climate Models for Hydrological Extremes in Western Norway
We evaluate CPRCMs for flood simulations in Western Norway, showing improved precipitation representation but highlighting the need for bias correction to enhance flood prediction in mountainous basin
From Transition to Antifragility: A Spatial Approach to Innovation and Territorial Regeneration in the Alpine Region
The research explores spatial strategies for Alpine transitions, proposing hubs in Valtellina to foster innovation, reduce disparities, and enhance sustainability within the EUSALP framework.
Integrating Remote Sensing and Participatory Scenario Planning to Model Agroforestry Futures in Ethiopia
Agroforestry’s viability in Ethiopia relies on socio-environmental, political, and cultural factors, requiring local knowledge and remote sensing for effective land-use planning and climate adaptation
Flow regime changes resulting from land cover and climate change in a watershed spanning the rain-snow transition zone
Streamflow changes resulting from land cover and climate changes strongly depend on spatial scale, vegetation ages, and specific flow metrics.
The role of the Sonnblick Observatory within European Research Infrastructure Consortiums (ERICs) and its potential for eLT(S)ER
Insight into the potential of the Sonnblick Observatory as a research hub for ERICs with new approaches to altitude gradient studies in the context of eLT(S)ER. A potential for cooperations.
Societal ecosystem interactions across East African mountains: Past, present and future
Mountains are crucial for supporting life, this interaction has changed through the past ad will evolve in the future.
Summer intense precipitations in the Alpine region: altitudinal effects
Intense summer precipitation has increased over recent decades, with a more pronounced enhancement over the Alpine slopes compared to the Po Valley
