Geomorphic risks in mountain regions: From climate and anthropogenic controls to management strategies
Original language description
Building on examples from all over the world, we first outline the impacts of climate and anthropogenic driving forces on geomorphic risks in mountain regions. We especially address changing occurrence patterns of rapid mass movement processes (avalanches, landslides and outburst floods) in space and time and changing exposure to these processes. In the second part of this chapter, we revisit previous discussions of disaster risk reduction in mountain regions. Building on the identified gaps and recent discussions of risks in a mountain context we elaborate possible management strategies for geomorphic risks in mountain regions to pave the way toward sustainable development of fragile mountain ecosystem and resilience of vulnerable mountain communities.
