Description

Understand the urgent environmental challenges facing our planet with Mountain World in Danger. This book by Routledge provides a detailed look at how a warming world and acid rain affect the high mountains and forests of Europe. As we face the end of the twentieth century, the impact of these phenomena on our natural landscapes becomes more evident. This text explains the vital role that mountains and frozen regions, known as the cryosphere, play in our global climatic system and water supplies. You will learn about the serious threats to these ecosystems, including shrinking glaciers, the acidification of lakes and soils, and damage to forest health. By examining fragile ranges like the Alps and the Caucasus, this book provides essential information on the threats to these mountain environments and the ecosystems they support.
