Modeling the impacts of grazing management on livestock behavior and performance: A case study in the Peruvian Andes

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
Our modeling study shows that livestock management strongly influences grazing behavior and animal performance in the Peruvian Andes. Furthermore, adjusting stocking rates and improving animal distribution can enhance forage intake and body condition while increasing forage biomass.

Coseismic landsliding estimates for an Alpine Fault earthquake and the consequences for erosion of the Southern Alps, New Zealand

open access: yes, 2016
Landsliding resulting from large earthquakes in mountainous terrain presents a substantial hazard and plays an important role in the evolution of mountain ranges.

Assessing the Performance of the Copernicus European Regional Reanalysis Dataset in Reproducing Extreme Weather Events in Poland

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Global reanalyses, for example ERA5 and ERA5‐Land, tend to misrepresent the local‐scale weather extremes due to the limited spatial resolution. In this paper CERRA shows clear and consistent improvements over ERA5 and ERA5‐Land in representing extreme temperature and precipitation in Poland, particularly for localized and short‐lived heavy rainfall ...

Spatio‐Temporal Patterns and Drivers of High‐Impact Precipitation Events in the European Alps (1961–2022)

open access: yesWater Resources Research
High‐impact precipitation events (HIPEs) in mountainous regions are frequently associated with severe flooding, landslides, and significant impacts on infrastructure and human safety.

CHRONOLOGICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL DISTRIBUTION OF THE FAM. COMELICANIIDAE MERLA, 1930 (BRACHIOPODA)

open access: yesRivista Italiana di Paleontologia e Stratigrafia, 2020
The comelicaniid brachiopods, typical fossils of the Upper Permian, have been considered the markers for the Lower Dorashamian. They show a Wide geographical distribution, that is from the Southern Alps (Italy) to Himalayan region - Dolomites and Carnia (

Present-day surface deformation of the Alpine region inferred from geodetic techniques [PDF]

open access: yesEarth 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.

Observed Linkages Between Marine Heatwaves and Extreme Weather Over Land: A New Zealand Case Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Marine heatwaves consistently warm New Zealand's land surface, but rainfall impacts occur only when synoptic systems enable moisture transport. This 38‐year analysis shows MHWs act as thermodynamic background drivers of heat and conditional amplifiers of extreme rainfall events or droughts.

Paleogeographic significance of Upper Triassic basinal succession of the Tamar Valley, northern Julian Alps (Slovenia)

open access: yesGeologica Carpathica, 2015
The Julian Alps (western Slovenia) structurally belong to the eastern Southern Alps. The Upper Triassic succession mostly consists of shallow water platform carbonates of the Dolomia Principale-Dachstein Limestone system and a deep water succession of ...

Climatology and Trends of Sub‐Daily Precipitation Extremes in Croatia

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Sub‐daily extreme precipitation indices reveal pronounced spatial variability, with the highest intensities and frequencies across the Adriatic region and the highlands. Seasonal and diurnal patterns highlight distinct regional behaviour, including summer maxima over the continental interior and nocturnal or early‐morning peaks along the Adriatic coast.
