New constraints on the postglacial evolution of Lago Maggiore, Northern Italy
Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Lago Maggiore is situated in an overdeepened valley reach at the southern margin of the European Alps, and its thick sediment infill allows the reconstruction of the postglacial valley and lake evolution. We study here the sedimentary succession in the lower Ossola Valley, which is infilled by ~500 m of deposits. In a marginal position, a core

On the estimation of ice volume of alpine glaciers
Лëд и снег, 2015 Volume (V) − area (S) scaling approach (V = kSp, where V and S are obtained from direct measurements) is widely used for ice storage assessments in glacier-mountain systems.

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Soil erosion poses a critical threat to ecological security in mountain watersheds worldwide. Predicting its dynamics and associated soil organic carbon (SOC) loss remains an ongoing challenge during the 21st century due to complex interactions among climate, land use, and topography.

Почвознание, агрохимия и екология, 2010 Based on the undisputable proved withdrawal of the plane glaciers to North and the mountain glaciers withdrawal upward after thе Glacial epoch, we think that the Brown mountain forest soils in the middle and south Euro-Asian mountains are degraded ...

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Fires are expanding in frequency and intensity worldwide due to climate change and land‐use transformations. At the same time, fire often plays a regenerative role in ecosystems. Traditional and cultural practices incorporate fire use for landscape management and landscape renewal. In this complex matrix of fire ecologies, digital technologies

People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract Conservation decisions often require navigating tensions among ecological, cultural, economic and social priorities. While debates frequently centre on single‐species outcomes, less is known about how care for landscapes may contribute to co‐stewardship.

Gletscher als klimagesteuerte Systeme
Zeitschrift für Geographiedidaktik, 2004 Natural systems are rather complex. However, it is important to understand the interactions and causal connections within such systems as mountain glaciers.

Needle in a haystack: Holocene history of European larch in Central Europe revisited
PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.Defining nativity of species is crucial for their management. However, this is a complex task, especially for species that have been used and spread by humans for a long time. We combined paleoecological records with extensive genetic data to investigate the Holocene history of European larch—a common and economically important tree species in Central ...

Synoptic and large‐scale drivers of extreme precipitation events in the Himalayas
Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Months associated with maximum frequency of extreme precipitation events (EPEs). 6102 extreme precipitation days (i.e., exceeding 99th percentile for daily precipitation) occurred across the Karakoram, Western Himalayas (WH), Central Himalayas (CH) and Eastern Himalayas (EH) during 1979 to 2023.
