Mountain Environments: Changes and Impacts Natural Landscapes and Human Adaptations to Diversity /
This book studies mountains with a global perspective, like a complex topographic and topoclimatic mosaic organized in altitudinal belts that are influenced by a huge variability in slopes, soils, lithology and insolation. Furthermore, the presence of lower temperatures, higher precipitation and the...
