Abstract

Throughout this book it has been verified that the world’s mountain areas are being affected by major changes with serious consequences for the mountains themselves and for the Earth as a whole. Palaeoenvironmental and historical studies show that mountains have been dynamic regions affected by particularly intense climatic changes, altering plant cover distribution, timberline location and geomorphological processes, and have led to spectacular glacial expansions and contractions.
