This presents a low computational complexity wildfire spread model used as a decision support system for evaluating the relative effects of alternative management scenarios in the Desbosigem! project.
World Mountain Cities and their characteristics?
The Urban Centre Data Base contains over 11,000 cities of over 50,000 inhabitants each can be used in locating and quantitatively characterizing cities in mountainous regions at global scale.
Co-Creation for Mountain Climate Resilience: quadruple-helix approach for Stakeholder Engagement
The Horizon Europe MountResilience Project, funded by CINEA, mission CLIMA, aims to increase resilience to climate chenge. Duration: 54 months (2023-2028) Partnership: 47 partners, UMIL lead partner
Building safety in high Alps. The Capanna Margherita hut case study.
Global warming in high Alps is the cause of permafrost degradation and a threat for mountain huts. Thermo-geomechanical monitoring can be used to assess stability conditions.

Assimilating hydrological variables with particle filters to improve distributed snow modeling and spatial precipitation patterns
This study reduces uncertainty in distributed snow modeling via data assimilation (PF) of hydrological variables, enhancing SWE and precipitation distribution estimates in a Central Andes catchment.
Sediment flux and path-length validation in a large Alpine River: the Tagliamento
We combine field morphological measurements with numerical simulations to validate sediment movements in the Tagliamento River.
A Hare on the Moon? Climate-driven fragmentation and the need for a coordinated Alpine conservation and monitoring network
Climate change fragments Alpine habitats, isolating species like the mountain hare. We evaluate its effects and propose a coordinated monitoring network across protected and non-protected areas.
Enhancing mountain precipitation insights via crowdsourcing and regional models
Validating precipitation in high-resolution climate models is challenged by insufficient spatial and temporal observations.
OLYMPUS – Spatio-temporal analysis of mediterranean treeline patterns: a multiscale approach
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
