The Changing Alpine Treeline: The Example of Glacier National Park, MT, USA (Developments in Earth Surface Processes)

The alpine treeline ecotone (ATE) is an area of transition high on mountains where closed canopy forests from lower elevations give way to the open alpine tundra and rocky expanses above. Alpine tundra is an island biome and its ecotone with forest is subject to change, and like oceanic islands, alpine tundra is subject to invasion – or the upward advance of treeline. The invasion of tundra by trees will have consequences for the tundra biome as invasion does for other island flora and fauna. To examine the invasibility of tundra we take a plant’s-eye-view, wherein the local conditions become extremely important. Among these local conditions, we find geomorphology to be exceptionally important. We concentrate on aspects of microtopography (and microgeomorphology) and microclimate because these are the factors that matter: from the plant’s-eye-view, but we pay attention to multiple scales. At coarse scales, snow avalanches and debris flows are widespread and create “disturbance treelines” whose elevation is well below those controlled by climate. At medium scales, turf-banked terraces create tread-and-riser topography that is a difficult landscape for a tree seedling to survive upon because of exposure to wind, dryness, and impenetrable surfaces. At fine scales, turf exfoliation of the fronts of turf-banked risers, and boulders, offer microsites where tree seedlings may find shelter and are able to gain a foothold in the alpine tundra; conversely, however, surfaces of needle-ice pans and frost heaving associated with miniature patterned ground production are associated with sites inimical to seedling establishment or survival. We explicitly consider how local scale processes propagate across scales into landscape patterns.

The objective of this book is to examine the controls on change at alpine treeline. All the papers are focused on work done in Glacier National Park, Montana, USA. Although any one place is limiting, we are able to examine the alpine treeline here in some detail – and an advantage is that the treeline ecotone in Glacier National Park is quite variable in itself due to the underlying variability in geomorphology at multiple scales.

This book will provide insights into an important ecological phenomenon with a distinctly geomorphic perspective. The editors collectively have over 100 years of experience in working in geomorphology, biogeography, and ecology. They also have each worked on research in Glacier National Park for several decades. The book will be a reference for a variety of professionals and students, both graduate and undergraduate, with interests in Physical Geography, Geomorphology, Ecology, and Environmental Science. Because of the importance of the alpine treeline ecotone for recreation and aesthetic interests in mountain environments, wildland and park managers will also use this book.

* Subject matter: geomorphology at alpine treeline
* Expertise of contributors: each editor brings over 25 years of experience in studies of ecotones and geomorphology, and collectively over 100 years of experience in Glacier National Park

The best alpine resorts - Choose Location

!9# The best alpine resorts - Choose Location

[if ]
[endif]

The mountains of the Alps mountain range is the most famous in Europe, and perhaps the most beautiful. And 'certainly the one that everyone should love the mountains, with the goal of seeing at least once in their lifetime. However, each visitor is facing up to the Alps, with a dilemma: which of several places in the Alpine countries and regions to choose as a destination? As someone who has examined a number of different parts of the Alpine region, I can understand that the election will not be easy.Each Alpine Resort has its own charm, and your choice is what you enjoy doing while you are motivated to be in the mountains. With this in mind, here are my own top choices of the alpine resorts.

Top French Alpine resort for the adventurous - Chamonix

Chamonix is ​​the ideal place in the French Alps. And 'here that is the highest mountain in Europe, Mont Blanc, to find a magnet for climbers. As impressive as the Mont Blanc is without a doubt, Chamonix offers somuch more.

In winter there is skiing to suit all categories. You will find no shortage of ski and snowboard schools to help you, the next step. Then party goers will find a lively nightlife scene.

In the summer of experienced climbers to have a chance to reach the summit of Mont Blanc and the rest of us can enjoy hiking or mountain bikes for rent. Paragliding or white water rafting while you're here. This is a resort for active familiesand those who enjoy a variety of sports.

In the Swiss Alps resort of the landscape and location - Zermatt and Interlaken

The Swiss Alpine resorts all offer spectacular scenery, and nowhere more than Zermatt. Here you will find the fabled Matterhorn and a series of high altitude is less than the natural beauty of the Alps admire the beautiful alpine flowers or use the public transportation system of trains, cable cars and funicular to visit the peaks and glaciers.Remember, your camera, this is a goal you will never forget!

If you have a goal that a good starting point for visiting other places in Switzerland, it is preferable, Interlaken is perfectly placed. This beautiful city is to visit several shops and nightlife, and allows you high-altitude ski resorts without feeling isolated from modern life.

Top Austrian Alpine resort of Variety - Seefeld

Seefeld is a well-guarded hotel in the beautiful Alps, Tyrol in Austria. TheResort has a lake and is surrounded by majestic mountains, but it is also only a short distance from all major road links to airports in Monaco and Innsbruck. This is a great place to make the trip to the city of Innsbruck and Seefeld in Bavaria in Germany. There are many opportunities for hiking and sports activities in Seefeld itself, as well as shops and trendy restaurants.

Other areas you might consider: the Italian Alps,perfect for sharing your time between the mountains and sunny city lake in Bavaria, a rich culture and fairytale castles, or Slovenia, for a pristine mountain experience. Whether you are traveling in winter or summer, and how fast or slow pace of life, the Alps the perfect destination for you.
