Diurnal mountain wind systems are local thermally driven wind systems that form over
mountainous terrain and are produced by the buoyancy effects associated with the diurnal …

Cold‐air pooling is a global phenomenon that frequently sustains low temperatures in
sheltered, low‐lying depressions and valleys and drives other key environmental conditions …

There is compelling evidence from glacial and interglacial periods of the Quaternary of the
utilization of microrefugia. Microrefugia are sites that support locally favorable climates …

Cold-Air-Pool Structure and Evolution in a Mountain Basin: Peter Sinks, Utah in: Journal of

Spatio-temporal patterns of temperature in mountain environments are complex due to both
regional synoptic-scale and landscape-scale physiographic controls in these systems …

ABSTRACT A high elevation data set of surface temperatures from the Front Range of the
Rocky Mountains in Colorado, USA, is analysed for evidence of long-term change (1952 …

Global warming has created a need for studies along climatic gradients to assess the effects
of temperature on ecological processes. Altitudinal and latitudinal gradients are often used …

Fine-scale topographic complexity creates important microclimates that can facilitate species
to grow outside their main distributional range and increase biodiversity locally. Enclosed …

Air temperature data from five enclosed limestone sinkholes of various sizes and shapes on
the Hetzkogel Plateau near Lunz, Austria (1300 m MSL), have been analyzed to determine …

Abstract The Taurus Mountain is one of the most important karstic region of the world and
dolines are characteristics landforms of this area. However, the number and distribution of …
