(3/4) 🌍 We found that most publications came from Central Europe (mainly the #EuropeanAlps) and Central Asia (#TibetanPlateau).
The research focus on each global mountain region differed: a research hub on alpine soil fauna is found in Central Europe, for #biocrusts also in Northern Europe, and for microbiota in Central Asia.
Most other mountain regions are still underrepresented, and more research should be conducted there to fill crucial knowledge gaps. 🏔️

NEW EUROPEAN RECORD 🎉
We were able to detect the Pygmy Shrews (Sorex minutus) in the high #alpine up to 3,300 m a.s.l. in #SouthTyrol #Italy, 780 metres higher than known before 🐁

#Alpine #SoilFauna season ended with an astonishing #hike close to #glacier.
As bonus we hiked up to the Hohe Wart (Guardia Alta, 3424m), which is on the crest towards the #Similaun (3606m)
In our samplings, we found something surprising 🥳 more details will be soon published in a short notice ✌️

What an adventure 🤠
We as #AlpSoil_Lab from #EuracResearch set up our highest pitfall traps yet at high #alpine sites at 3300m and 3100m.
These #GLORIA sites are quite steep and challenging to reach, but I can't wait to see the #soilfauna living up there 🔍#SoilScience #SoilBiodiversity #Alps #EuropeanAlps #SoilBiology #SouthTyrol #Italy #TexelGroup #Mountains #Mountaineering

Parallel to other #SoilEcology project, we at the #AlpSoil_Lab of #EuracResearch started with the #SnowBed project to sample #SoilMesofauna in #alpine environment.
Late this year but it is sunny up there!

This morning at the @worldbioforum 2024 in #Davos --> small excursion day with a team of #SoilBiodiversity researchers @EisenhauerLab, #AlpSoil_Lab, #ScheuLab)
We climbed up the Büelenhorn (2512m) and Büelenberg, a quite lonely mountain ridge above Davos.
A lot of nice biodiversity to see in the #alpine zone! (and sahara sand)#WorldBiodiversityForum #WBF2024 #WBF24 #MountainSoilBiodiversity #Mountains #Alps #EuropeanAlps #Switzerland #Graubünden

Big applause to @IngolfKuehn for his presentation of the #recolonation of #alpine plants on #glacier retreat zones in #limestone #mountains, in that case of the #Dachstein in #Salzburg (#Austria).
Interesting to hear that the recolonation is slower!
Wondering if "my mountains" - the #Dolomites - respond similarly 🤔 -
HOME (1270m) --> 🚶🚡🚲 --> WORK (260m):
- 15min cable car ride
- costs: 0.70cWORK (260m) --> 🥾🏃--> HOME (1270m)
- 1000m up, 7.5km
- costs: a lot of sweatThis is my #MountainLife 😎

#AlpSoil_Lab field work day 🤠
Despite a rainy start, the weather was quite friendly up at 2500m at #EuracResearch's #LTSER site Matsch/Mazia in #Vinschgau, #SouthTyrol, #Italy
Checked some #SoilTemp loggers for fresh #alpine soil temperature data from our (dry) grassland spots.

Deglaciation and erosion during the Holocene period left distinct landforms across the European Alps, such as debris ridges deposited at the snout of a glacier. Research shows that erosion has decreased in recent years. Phys.org explores what role climate change has played in the reduction and how it could impact mountain-dwelling communities. https://flip.it/qTg367
