The Soil Microbiome of GLORIA Mountain Summits in the Swiss Alps

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2019
While vegetation has intensively been surveyed on mountain summits, limited knowledge exists about the diversity and community structure of soil biota. Here, we study how climatic variables, vegetation, parent material, soil properties, and slope aspect ...

Controls on the diurnal streamflow cycles in two subbasins of an alpine headwater catchment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In high-altitude alpine catchments, diurnal streamflow cycles are typically dominated by snowmelt or ice melt. Evapotranspiration-induced diurnal streamflow cycles are less observed in these catchments but might happen simultaneously.

Contributions of arid climate and hydrothermal fluid flow on sedimentation in saline‐alkaline lakes: Insight from the Ibar intramontane basin (Southern Serbia)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
The article demonstrates that brine was central for the supply of Ca and B to the studied saline lake. The ion transport occurred probably by thermal springs, while contributions from surface waters cannot be excluded. However, the saturation and syndepositional precipitation of Ca borates were initiated by an arid climate through evaporation, while ...

Constructing a cave sediment stratigraphy for the Dachstein Massif sheds light on landscape evolution (Eastern Alps)

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Five large Alpine cave systems on the Dachstein (Austria) were investigated and 35 sediment profiles or outcrops between 860 m a.s.l. and 1945 m a.s.l. were analysed. An altitude‐dependent overall stratigraphy is established and depositional conditions and palaeo‐environments are reconstructed.

Alpine Skiing Injuries [PDF]

open access: yesSports Health: A Multidisciplinary Approach, 2018
Context: Alpine skiing is a popular sport worldwide but has significant risk for injury. The epidemiology of skiing-related injuries has been described, which has led to the identification of risk factors for specific types of injuries. Evidence Acquisition: Pertinent literature from peer-reviewed publications was reviewed.

Sedimentary facies and architecture of mixed bioclastic‐siliciclastic deposits forming in an inferred strait environment: An example from the Early Pleistocene of Calabria, southern Italy

open access: yesThe Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Early Pleistocene mixed arenites and their associated conglomerates and sandstones were studied in detail in Calabria, southern Italy. This study suggests that the studied palaeo‐strait was not necessarily a wider and similarly oriented expression of the modern Strait of Messina.

Overview of geothermal resource exploration and development in North Africa

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This article reviews geothermal exploration in North Africa, highlighting key activities, government policies, and exploration findings across Mauritania, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt. The region's substantial geothermal potential, driven by tectonic activity, positions it to play a significant role in the global geothermal energy ...
