Mountain environments are exposed to natural and anthropogenic pressures, and their sustainable management must be based on the understanding of vulnerability and adaptation potential of mountain ecosystems with regard to both environmental and socio-economic changes.
We aim to understand the effects of natural and anthropogenic disturbances on the functioning of terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems at a local and global level. We also study theoretical and applied aspects of ecosystem restoration and sustainable use of resources.
