This session welcomes contributions in connection with mountain climate, climate change, changing climate-extreme events, natural disasters, and other climate-related socioeconomic impacts. Adaptation actions and best practices are also welcomed. The abstract submission deadline is 13 Apr 2018.

Papers dealing with the following topics are invited:

• measurements in mountains
• climate time series, their quality control, homogenization methodologies and analysis
• water balance in higher elevated areas
• change of natural disasters according to climate change (droughts, avalanches, landslides, etc.)
• climate change impacts in mountain ecosystems

• adaptation to climate change in the mountains (forestry, grasslands, water systems, wetlands)
