As one of the most visible signs of climate change, glacier retreat is reshaping Alpine landscapes at an alarming rate. The Alps, one of the most vulnerable regions, are experiencing rapid ecological changes that affect both nature and people.

In response, ALPARC has undertaken a study to explore the ecological consequences of glacier loss in Alpine protected areas - with a focus on landscape transformation, species colonization and adaptation. The aim: to understand key dynamics in post-glacial ecosystems and develop conservation and communication strategies that support emerging biodiversity.
