Go or grow? Feedbacks between moving slopes and shifting plants in high mountain environments
High mountains are climate change hotspots. Quickly rising temperatures trigger vegetation
shifts such as upslope migration, possibly threatening mountain biodiversity. At the same …

From active to stable: Paraglacial transition of Alpine lateral moraine slopes
Many retreating Alpine valley glaciers leave large lateral moraines behind. Reworking of
these landforms by geomorphic processes is one of the most important paraglacial …
