Mountain regions occupy about a quarter of the global terrestrial
land surface and provide goods and services to more than half the
humanity. Global environmental change threatens the integrity of
these systems and their ability to provide the goods and services
upon which humanity has come to depend. This book gives an overview
of the state of research in fields pertaining to the detection,
understanding and prediction of global change impacts in mountain
regions. More than 60 contributions from paleoclimatology,
cryospheric research, hydrology, ecology, and development studies
are compiled in this volume, each with an outlook on future
research directions.
