Accurate estimation of precipitation in mountainous tropical regions remains a major challenge due to limited ground observations and complex topography. This study presents a methodology to generate high-resolution precipitation datasets for the Cordillera Blanca in the northern Peruvian Andes.
Assessing the Environmental Impacts of Mining Activities on Glacier Systems
Mountain-top bird species face extreme conditions, shaping breeding site selection. We monitored alpine nests in temperate Andes. Rock cavities buffer temperatures, potentially enhancing breeding success and adaptation to harsh weather
Spatio-temporal evaluation of surface dynamics in high-altitude wetlands with Earth observation datasets
Mountain-top bird species face extreme conditions, shaping breeding site selection. We monitored alpine nests in temperate Andes. Rock cavities buffer temperatures, potentially enhancing breeding success and adaptation to harsh weather
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
Aerosol Driven Radiative Forcing and Feedback Processes Promoting Glacial Melt in the Himalayas
Mountain-top bird species face extreme conditions, shaping breeding site selection. We monitored alpine nests in temperate Andes. Rock cavities buffer temperatures, potentially enhancing breeding success and adaptation to harsh weather
Status of Deforestation and Forest Degradation and Drivers thereof in Indo-Himalayan region
This study examines deforestation and forest degradation in the Indo-Himalayan region, estimating carbon stock, assessing forest status, identifying D&FD drivers, and proposing strategic solutions.
Understanding the Hydrological and Land Cover Dynamics of Peruvian High-Andean Wetlands
