About the conference
Torrents, receptacles of the erosion that cascades down from the high mountains, and their cones, living spaces for mountain populations, are formidable witnesses to the interactions between mountain dynamics, human societies and climate change.
Based on a geohistorical reading of Alpine territories, we will show the issues raised and the responses made by managers in the context of climate change.
