Present-day surface deformation of the Alpine region inferred from geodetic techniques [PDF]
Earth System Science Data, 2018 We provide a present-day surface-kinematics model for the Alpine region and surroundings based on a high-level data analysis of about 300 geodetic stations continuously operating over more than 12 years.

Atmospheric circulation patterns, cloud-to-ground lightning, and locally intense convective rainfall associated with debris flow initiation in the Dolomite Alps of northeastern Italy [PDF]
, 2015 The Dolomite Alps of northeastern Italy experience debris flows with great frequency during the summer months. An ample supply of unconsolidated material on steep slopes and a summer season climate regime characterized by recurrent thunderstorms combine ...

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Significant trends of precipitation totals are visible at seasonal (negative in spring and positive in winter) and monthly level. The deepening rainfall deficit in April in Western Sudetes threatens the stabilisation of forest ecosystems, the preservation of biodiversity and significantly limits water resources for economic use.

Alpine und pre-Alpine tectonics in the Central Orobic Alps (Southern Alps)
, 1988 A sequence of regional deformation episodes is described in the Permian cover and in the metamorphic basement of a portion of the Southern Alps, southeast of Sondrio (Valtellina). The earliest episode is contemporaneous with low to medium grade metamorphism in the basement; the second episode occurs during low temperature greenschist-facies ...

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.This review explores climate predictions as actionable decision‐making tools, focusing on the Mediterranean. It examines transforming forecasts into user‐defined information through bias adjustment, downscaling and impact models. Highlighting collaborative EU initiatives, it addresses challenges like limited forecasting skill and data accessibility ...

Spatial modeling of extreme snow depth
, 2011 The spatial modeling of extreme snow is important for adequate risk management in Alpine and high altitude countries. A natural approach to such modeling is through the theory of max-stable processes, an infinite-dimensional extension of multivariate ...

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.A transient ensemble of convection‐permitting climate simulations is used to compute bias‐corrected user‐relevant climate indices for Germany under recent and future climate conditions, both considering high spatial resolution and uncertainty estimations. For high temperature indices, a clear increase is observed, for example, for hot days and tropical

Lethaia, EarlyView., 2021 Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)
