Our colleague Marin Kneib shows that #avalanches are key for glacier survival worldwide.
💡 First global estimate of avalanche contribution to glacier mass balance:
• 11% in the Alps
• 22% in New Zealand
• Negative in the Andes

In Ecography, we show how landscape connectivity and climate dynamics shape plant endemism hotspots in the Hengduan Mountains. Endemism peaks at ~3,000–4,000 m, highlighting the complex interplay of geography and biodiversity.

New paper by @matthias-huss.bsky.social Huss, Andreas Bauder & colleagues document the extinction of #Pizolgletscher, using 130+ years of observations 📊🏔️. A rare chance to follow a glacier from a healthy state to its final disappearance.

PhD candidate Michele ter Huurne is extracting water from soil and twig samples to trace where trees get their water using δ18O isotopes.
Huge thanks to Dr. Matthias Saurer @wslresearch.bsky.social for the guidance and lab support!

Co-authored by VAW colleagues Marijn van der Meer & @matthias-huss.bsky.social , this new paper present the Mass Balance Machine (MBM), an XGBoost model that predicts seasonal glacier mass balance from sparse data and often beats traditional models.
