About the conference
Torrents, which channel the erosion flowing down from the high mountains, and their cones, which serve as living spaces for mountain communities, are powerful reminders of the interactions between mountain dynamics, human societies, and climate change.
Drawing on a geo-historical analysis of Alpine regions, this presentation will highlight the challenges posed by climate change and the responses adopted by managers in these contexts.
