Recovery of Alpine Herbfield on a Closed Walking Track in the Kosciuszko Alpine Zone, Australia.

open access: yes, 2006
Human use of arctic and alpine environments can result in damage to the natural vegetation and soils. Restoration of the damage can have limited success due to the severity of the environment, which restricts plant germination and growth and increases ...

Distribution and diversity of exotic plant species in montane to alpine areas of Kosciuszko National Park [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Diversity and distribution of exotic plant taxa in Kosciuszko National Park in south-eastern Australia were reviewed based on 1103 records of exotics from 18 vegetation surveys conducted between 1986 and 2004.

Effects of Erosion Gully Drainage on Soil Organic Carbon Spatial Differentiation Pattern in Alpine Peatlands

open access: yesWetlands
Abstract Hydrothermal pattern and vegetation community structure are key factors affecting the soil organic carbon (SOC) formation and accumulation in alpine peatlands. Research on the influence of vegetation and soil factors on SOC spatial differentiation pattern under the thaw slump erosion gullies drainage gradient, can help understand the ...

Alpine peatlands: spatially and temporally complex ecosystems with year-round methane cycling activity

open access: yes
Abstract Peatlands are well-known emitters of methane. European alpine peatlands share certain characteristics with boreal peatlands, despite being located at temperate latitudes, such as a strong seasonality with snowfall in winter and a short summer and growing season.

Measurements of the carbon, energy and water balance in an Italian alpine peatland and simulating the vegetation and carbon dynamics in three different peatlands

open access: yes, 2017
The stored carbon in the soil of peatlands is a result of a long-term imbalance between the decomposition and the biomass production. Peatlands occur all over the world but are mainly located in the northern hemisphere. Up to now, peatlands in the Alps have not received much attention, because they are not the dominant ecosystem.

Year-round methane cycling activity in a European alpine peatland with large spatial and temporal variability

open access: yes
Abstract. Peatlands are well-known emitters of methane (CH4). European alpine peatlands share certain characteristics with boreal peatlands, despite being located at temperate latitudes, such as a strong seasonality with snowfall in winter and a short summer and growing season.

A Spatial Agent-Based Model to Explore Scenarios of Adaptation to Climate Change in an Alpine Tourism Destination [PDF]

open access: yes
A vast body of literature suggests that the European Alpine region may be one of the most sensitive to climate change impacts. Adaptation to climate change of Alpine socio-ecosystems is increasingly becoming an issue of interest for the scientific ...
