Tourism threatens alpine vegetation. This study used multi-platform remote sensing to assess trampling impact. Key indices and spectral data identified degraded areas, aiding conservation efforts.
Climate Change Impact Assessment in Alpine region of Central Himalaya using Remote Sensing: A case study of Uttarakhand Himalaya
The outcome of this study is important for understanding the effect of climate change in the Himalayan cryosphere region.
Subnational reporting on mountain biodiversity protection
We compare mountain biodiversity protection at subnational scale using a site-based and an area-based approach compatible with the Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework targets.
Long-term monitoring of a landslide
Experiences in measuring and evaluating the long-term monitoring of a slope. Interpretation of the results and how do I recognize critical movement patterns?
Sensor-based structural monitoring of rockfall protection fences
Pilot project in Germany: Use of a system for alerting in the event of dynamic impacts. Contribution to structural maintenance and monitoring, including documentation of environmental data.
Reopening of the Marienschlucht by Lake Constance
To allow the approach to the Marienschlucht a monitoring concept was developed.
Springs as climate refugia in a semi-arid mountainous ecosystem in Idaho, U.S.A.
Springs provide climate refugia, through lower interannual variability in late-season phenology and less coupling to climatic water balance and snowmelt timing compared to their surroundings.
Horcones Superior Glacier: Monitoring the Role of Debris Cover at the Top of the Americas
Debris-covered glaciers in the Central Andes are changing rapidly. Our multi-method monitoring of Horcones Superior Glacier helps unravel ice-debris dynamics and the glacier’s response to climate
A global reference framework of water isotopic signatures in glacierized catchment
This research establishes a global framework for the isotopic signatures of endmembers in glacierized catchments, enhancing the understanding of hydrological processes under changing climate
Early detection of alert states for water management in drought-prone mountain areas
This study develops a Combined Water Scarcity Index integrating 4 indicators, meteorological, agronomic, and hydrological drought, and a water quality aspect, in a pilot farming Andalusian area.
