#Rockglaciers are slowly creeping downhill, and since the 1990s they have been doing so at an accelerating rate - in the westernmost and easternmost parts of the #Alps in synchrony. This makes them a reliable #ClimateIndicator, a recent study shows geo.uzh.ch/en/events/feat…

Birds use valleys and passes to cross the Alps A team UZH Science & Vogelwarte_Science monitored how migratory birds cross the Swiss #Alps with year-round radar measurements - with important implications for the protection of migratory birds. geo.uzh.ch/en/events/feat… #ornithology

❄️📊 #ESOTC highlights that fewer snow days than average and high summer temperatures contributed to exceptional glacier melt in central Europe in 2023. Glaciers in the Alps lost 10% of their volume in the last two years. More details 👉 climate.copernicus.eu/esotc/2023/sno…
