Environmental processes and dynamics are driven by the diverse properties of physical systems on global, regional, and local scales. Accelerating climate change affects the underlying processes and thereby landscape dynamics, and moreover socio-ecological systems. At FAU climatic changes and their effects are studied from different research perspectives, with focus on high mountain environments.
