Abstract:

Mountains are highly diverse in areal extent, geological and climatic context, ecosystems and human activity. As such, mountain environments worldwide are particularly sensitive to the effects of anthropogenic climate change (global warming) as a result of their unique heat balance properties and the presence of climatically-sensitive snow, ice, permafrost and ecosystems. Consequently, mountain systems—in particular cryospheric ones—are currently undergoing unprecedented changes in the Anthropocene.

The Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta (SNSM) is a large, isolated mountain on Colombia’s Caribbean coast. Its isolation has led to high diversity and endemism in its fauna; however, knowledge of the mountain’s floristics remains limited.

Over the years, mountain climbing has become more popular among ordinary people, with interest suddenly spiking during this recent time. A well-prepared and route-knowledgeable climber is most likely to win half the battle. The task of selecting a mountain for first-time climbers can be a daunting one. The Simple Additive Weighting (SAW) method can help beginner climbers determine which mountain is best for them. This method enables users to assign weights to each criterion and alternative based on their preferences, facilitating direct comparisons between options, and calculating all possible

The second mountain in 4.26, the mountain of the east, is Mt Lubar where the ark landed at the end of the flood and where Noah lived until his death. All four mountains in 4.26 are places where God had or would specially reveal himself to chosen individuals and for that reason were holy to the Lord.

Abstract:

Mountains are topographic features caused by erosion after vertical uplift or mountain building. Mountain building is often confused with orogeny, which today means the formation of structures in fold belts. The common assumption that folding and mountain building go together is generally untrue. Many mountains occur in unfolded rocks, granites and volcanic rocks, so there is no direct association of folding and mountain building. In those places where mountains are underlain by folded rocks the folding pre-dates planation and uplift. The age of mountains is therefore not the age of the last f

Several factors, such as trail difficulty, altitude, climbing duration, cost, and water availability, must be considered to ensure a safe and comfortable climb. Therefore, this study develops a web-based Decision Support System (DSS) to assist climbers in choosing a mountain that matches their preferences. This research employs the Multi-Factor Evaluation Process (MFEP) method to evaluate mountains based on predetermined criteria. The system assigns weights to e

Abstract:

Natural worship is a unique spiritual activity of human civilization that has existed since ancient times, arising from the awe-inspiring feeling that humans have towards mountains, rivers, and all things in nature. The mountain sacrifice system is a ritual practice that developed from the spiritual development of natural worship. Since the mythological era, the worship of natural phenomena and objects has existed, and Confucianism incorporated the ethics of nature into its doctrine, including mountains and rivers in its philosophical concept of Earth. During the Han Dynasty, rulers reorganize

ArgumentOne of the first high-altitude observatories was a hotel. Established in 1823, the chalet on Mount Faulhorn became a highpoint of nineteenth-century science. In this paper, I take this mountain as my entry point into the examination of the special attraction that mountains exerted on scientists. I argue that Mount Faulhorn stood for three different conceptions of the usefulness of the mountain in science: (1) in observation networks, stations were usually chosen for pragmatic rather than scientific reasons, but mountains representedsingularspots in such networks, which deserved special

AbstractNearly a quarter of Canada’s landmass is covered by mountainous terrain, making mountains an important aspect of the physical and human geography of the country. Mountain areas in Canada have motivated a great deal of research activity, yet the state of mountain research in the country has never been systematically characterized, precluding a detailed understanding of what is being studied, when, where, how, and by whom. In response, we conducted a systematic scoping review to rigorously identify, collate, and critically examine existing peer-reviewed articles related to mountains in C

There exists a strong link between mountain regions and biodiversity. These regions represent the most important source of regional and global ecosystems forming the core elements of environmental and sustainable development policies. Mountains operate as true refuge for endemic species but are affected by uncontrolled human actions, while alpine meadows are exposed to losses of traditional pasture practices. Mountains can be analyzed from the economic, ecological, environmental, social, cultural viewpoints and their multidisciplinary nature is acknowledged both in the academic milieu and by d

Abstract. Mountains can modify the weather downstream of the terrain. In particular, when stably stratified air ascends a mountain barrier, buoyancy perturbations develop. These perturbations can trigger mountain waves downstream of the mountains that can reach deep into the atmospheric boundary layer where wind turbines operate. Several such cases of mountain waves occurred during the Second Wind Forecast Improvement Project (WFIP2) in the Columbia River basin in the lee of the Cascade Range bounding the states of Washington and Oregon in the Pacific Northwest of the United States.

Mountains cover 24% of the Earths land surface, are home to 12% of the global population, and include 28% of the worlds forests. Mountain forests provide a wide range of benefits to both mountain and downstream populations, notably the protection of watersheds and of transport infrastructure. They are also important as centres of biodiversity; important sources of timber, fuelwood and non-wood products; places for tourism and recreation; and sacred places. Many are also being considered as possible carbon sinks to mitigate climate change. Mountain forests are subject to many forces of change

In this context can be very interesting, that changes in alpine tree line ecotone in high European mountains were induced by human activities relatively often also in history. Probably one of the most important driver in land-use changes in high mountains was grazing, which significantly have influenced both mountain spruce forests and open alpine grasslands in central-Europe.

Casper Mountain is an E–W trending anticlinal structure that is bound on the north by the oblique-slip Casper Mountain fault. The fault is postulated to reflect preexisting Precambrian structure/fabrics that were reactivated and/or guided deformation during the Laramide orogeny. A structural analysis of the fault zone and surrounding area was conducted to confirm this hypothesis, and to garner insight into both Precambrian origins and Laramide kinematics. Surface and subsurface data for structural analysis was collected and synthesized from numerous published sources along the proposed deforma

Abstract:

Mountains are an important research object for surveying, mapping, cartography, space science, and ecological remote sensing. Automatic mountain segmentation is one of the most critical techniques in large-scale mountain analyses. However, several factors limit the segmentation accuracy, such as the complexity of mountains, the noise of geospatial data, and the confusion in distinguishing non-mountainous objects with similar features. In order to improve the accuracy of mountain segmentation against these limiting factors, we impose the cloth constraint over the digital elevation model (DEM) w

Mountain warfare has thousands of years of history and presents numerous challenges to military operations. History proves, that this environment has decreased combat strength, caused more casualties than the enemy in some operations and influenced war tactics significantly. Mountain warfare has an increasing frequency due to withdrawal areas for hostile forces, being home of ethnic minorities, being origin of many water supplies and being a natural frontier between countries. Mountains influence all warfighting functions, but especially movement and manoeuvre (mobility) and force protection (
