This study investigates the macrozoobenthos longitudinal recovery downstream of the Grand Dixence dam (CH), exploring seasonal trends and tributary influences in a human-impacted Alpine riverscape
Introducing The Glacier Stewardship Program – an international team responding to the global loss of glaciers
The Glacier Stewardship Program is introduced by international scientists to slow ice loss, enhance hazard warnings, and preserve glacier biodiversity for future climate resilience.
Winners and losers in a warming world: a long term study of the International Tundra Experiment (ITEX)
Which plants are winning and which are losing with warming over time?
Students’ perceptions of glaciers and high mountain areas under the influence of climate change: Students’ sketches of ecosystem services
This study examines student perceptions of high mountain areas and their ecosystem services in the context of climate change. Results reveal that ESS framework would support systemic understanding.
Biodiversity of Ecological Restoration in a Temperate Mountain System of the Central Himalayas, Uttarakhand, India
This research highlights the importance and value of private forest protection and conservation in achieving long–term biodiversity conservation goals in the Central Himalayas
Climate impact from two decades of forest change in the Himalayas.
Himalayan forests sequestered 129.9 MtCO₂eq (2000-2021). Nepal’s forests achieved net sequestration of 73.4 MtCO₂eq. Eastern Himalayas are a long-term and high-density carbon sink.
Carbon and water fluxes relationship with vegetation on high altitude habitat in the context of Climate change: a case study in the Northern Apennines
This study investigates the multi-faceted relationships between carbon and water fluxes and vegetation in alpine ecosystems under the influence of climate change.
Post-disturbance forest recovery varies with climate and disturbance gradients in the European Alps
We investigate how post-disturbance recovery in the Alps varies across environmental gradients and how vapor pressure deficit influence recovery, using multi-decadal Earth observation data
When Biodiversity Speaks to Us: Temporal Changes in Macrophytes of Pyrenean High-Mountain Lakes
The study of macrophyte communities in Pyrenean high-mountain lakes reveals shifts related to environmental changes, especially pronounced when a critical threshold has been exceeded.
Exploring Groundwater-Surface Water Interactions in Mountainous Regions Using Integrated In-Situ and Remote Sensing Approaches
Integrating sensors and drone thermal imagery, this study characterizes river water surface-groundwater interactions in mountainous regions, enhancing drought management
