The chapters present key concepts, major drivers and key processes of mountain response, providing transdisciplinary orientation to mountain studies incorporating experiences of academics, community leaders and policy-makers from developed and less developed countries. The book chapters are arranged in two sections. The first section concerns the response processes of mountain environments to climate change. This section addresses climate change itself (past, current and future changes of temperature and precipitation) and its impacts on the cryosphere, hydrosphere, biosphere, and human-environment systems. The second section focuses on the response processes of mountain environments to land use/land cover change. The case studies address effects of changing agriculture and pastoralism, forest/water resources management and urbanization processes, landscape management, and biodiversity conservation. The book is designed as an interdisciplinary publication which critically evaluates developments in mountains of the world with contributions from both social and natural sciences. 001442675 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed November 15, 2021). 001442675 650_0 $$aMountain ecology. 001442675 650_0 $$aMountains. 001442675 650_0 $$aLandscapes. 001442675 650_6 $$aÉcologie des montagnes. 001442675 650_6 $$aMontagnes. 001442675 650_6 $$aPaysages. 001442675 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001442675 7001_ $$aSchickhoff, Udo. 001442675 7001_ $$aSingh, R.
