Global Change in Mountain Regions (GLOCHAMORE) Thomas Schaaf UNESCO Division of Ecological and Earth Sciences Programme on Man and the Biosphere (MAB)

Why mountains? Have a varied system of different ecosystems and habitats (altitude, exposition, gradient); Fragile ecosystems (erosion, land degradation);  excellent indicators for studying and monitoring climate change temp. Alpine zone Temperate zone Sub-tropical zone Tropical zone

Mountain biosphere reserves as monitoring sites for global change: contain protected areas (natural or near-natural environments); contain areas that are economically used; most BRs dispose of long-term climatic data and species list; BRs contain also people  impact of global change on human societies; Partnership of biosphere reserve managers and scientists.

Mountain Regions (GLOCHAMORE) Global Change in Mountain Regions (GLOCHAMORE) Setting up a world-wide network of mountain biosphere reserves to study global change; Bringing together global change researchers and protected area managers; sponsored by European Commission; MRI; and UNESCO

Objectives: To understand the causes and impacts of Global Change in mountain regions;  Focus on the consequences of global change for the biophysical environment and for human societies
