| 內容簡介 | 氣候變遷的影響在冰川上每天上演並可被測量到。阿爾卑斯山脈冰川的退縮速度比科學家預期的要快得多。這是地方因素導致全球暖化惡化所造成的影響。氣候變化不僅影響了阿爾卑斯山的生態系統，也同時影響永凍土帶支撐岩石及岩屑的力量。冰塊融化的結果是極具毀滅性的。
Glaciers are places where the effects of climate change can be seen and measured on a daily basis. The retreat of glaciers in the Alps has been far more rapid than scientists had predicted. This is due to the exacerbation of global warming by local factors. The changes not only impact the Alpine ecosystem. Permafrost holds rocks and scree in place. If it melts, the results could be devastating.<摘錄自媒體封面或內頁> |
