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
Mitigating torrential risks in mountanous regions through forest management: A case study from Slovenia
Presented approach emphasizes adaptive management practices to mitigate torrential risks, with results demonstrating the importance of forest management in enhancing resilience and flood protection.
Characterizing drought impact on tree growth and vitality along an elevation gradient in the Alps
To analyze the impact of drought on tree growth we compare physiological with meteorological indicators for multiple tree species along an elevation gradient in the Alps.
Participatory observation and scientific mediation: efficient approaches to transdisciplinary collaboration in the field of mountain forest management.
This paper analyses the role of participant observation and scientific mediation in the emergence and implementation of trans-disciplinary collaborations concerning the forest-wood sector in the Frenc
Assessing forest landscape naturalness under future climate change and disturbances in the Italian Alps
We assessed forest naturalness and disturbances vulnerability in the Italian Alps, revealing that naturalness may not ensure lower vulnerability, suggesting strategic management for future resilience
Forest canopy height modelling using space-borne LiDAR systems in the Himalayan region
Forest canopy height modelling using combination of GEDI and ICESat-2
Climate change adaptation in xeric mountain protection forests – results from a 10-year experimental plantation
Analysis of the results of a 10-year plantation experiment with nine native and non-native tree species at a xeric site in the Swiss Alps.
Seed(ing the) data of tomorrow – but how? A closer look at seed monitoring methods
We present a variety of commonly used seed monitoring methods, as well as some niche and possible future ones, and discuss their characteristics.
Narratives and practices for climate change adaptation in a forest dieback context. Case study of the Doller Valley in the mid-mountain massif of Vosges (Haut-Rhin, France).
We analyze the narratives of change and the forest renewal practices implemented in the Doller Valley. We show the interplay of ideological and empirical changes driven by climate-change adaptation.
Decline and restoration of a mountain heritage landscape in the Italian Apennines. The case of Moscheta in Tuscany
The contribution wants to highlight the land use changes that affected a heritage mountain landscape of central Italy but also the Landscape Restoration Project implemented in the last years.
