Do Shapes of Altitudinal Species Richness Gradients Depend on the Vertical Range Studied? The Case of the Himalayas by Jatishwor Singh Irungbam, Martin Konvicka, Zdenek Faltynek Fric

“…The gradient shapes were primarily influenced by three interrelated predictors: vertical range, maximum elevation, and mean elevation. Studies from the world’s highest mountain range suggest that surveys encompassing substantial portions of the elevational range tend to produce hump-shaped gradients, while incomplete sampling leads to declining or increasing species richness patterns.…”

State and Fate of Glaciers in the Val Veny (Mont-Blanc Range, Italy): Contribution of Optical Satellite Products by Antoine Rabatel, Etienne Ducasse, Victor Ramseyer, Romain Millan

“…Indeed, satellite products obtained in a quasi-systematic way allow to account not only for the loss of surface and volume, but also for the changes in their flow velocities. The overall pattern we document is a glacier thinning and slowdown of the ice flow, with an estimated shrinkage of 25% by 2050 and a volume loss ranging between 30 and 43% depending on the data source used for the estimation of the initial volume. …”
