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
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.
Shaping a New Research Agenda for Mountain Futures
Mountain social ecological systems are increasingly facing many future challenges. We present a global research framework, embedded within local knowledge, to address these challenges
Redefining potentially dangerous glacial lakes by integrating hazard mapping and downstream exposure data in Bhutan
Approximately 20882 people, 2620 buildings, 270 km of road, 402 bridges and 169 hectares of farmland are exposed to GLOF in Bhutan.
Playing the way through: combining science, psychology and visioning exercises for middle school students to think about mountain community futures
A workshop with teenagers from a mountain community that combined science education, eco-emotions and visioning to increase awareness of the environmental crisis and strengthen the sense of agency.
Dispersal limitation and competition explain lags in plant elevational range shifts
Even in mountains where dispersal distances are very small, range shift lags can still be caused by dispersal limitation.
Assessing Climate Risks and Adaptation Plans in Mountain Regions: A Global Synthesis of National Climate Action Plans
This study systematically reviews and synthesizes climate hazards, exposure, vulnerability and adaptation measures prioritized by mountainous countries in their most recent NDCs, NAPs, and BTRs.
Climate change impacts on recreational alpinist behaviour in European Alps
This study investigates how recreational alpinists in the European Alps perceive and adapt to the impacts of climate change.
