The traditional mud hives of Mandakini Valley sustain native Himalayan honeybees, promote pollination, and support rural livelihoods. Help in biodiversity conservation and climate resilience.
Using digital technologies for the International Year of Glacier’s Preservation: The Glaciar app.
We are currently developing an app for the International Year of Glacier’s Preservation, that focuses on a citizen science approach to monitoring of climate change in glaciers and mountain areas.
Jack Ives and Bruno Messerli in the line of Andean Montologists
Ives and Messerli overtook the universal concept of mountain science realized by Alexander von Humboldt, transforming it to “Montology” with respect to the challenges of the contempory world.
Improving green roof design: The crucial role of substrate depth for microclimate and plant composition
Variations in substrate depth can create distinct microclimates on an otherwise homogeneous extensive green roof and enhance taxonomic and structural diversity of the vegetation.
