Plant Sciences, NAWI Graz, University of 3 Graz, 8010 Graz, Austria, Department of Location European Alps (Austria, Switzerland and Italy). Animal Ecology and Tropical Biology, Biocenter, University of Wurzburg,€ 97074 Methods Five glacier forelands subjected to relevant glacier retreat during the Wurzburg,€ Germany last century were investigated. In each glacier foreland, three successional stages were selected at increasing distance from the glacier, corresponding to a gradi- ent of time since deglaciation between 25 and 160 years. In each successional stage, soil-dwelling lichens were surveyed within five 1 9 1 m plots. In addi- tion to a classical ecological framework, based on species richness and compo- sition, we applied a functional approach to better elucidate community assembly mechanisms. Results A positive relationship was found between species richness and time since deglaciation indicating that richer lichen communities can be found at increasing terrain ageing. This pattern was associated with compositional shifts, suggesting that different community assemblages can be found along the suc- cessional stages. The analysis of b-diversity revealed a significant nested pattern of species assemblages along the gradient (i.e. earlier successional stages hosted a subset of the species already established in older successional stages), while the turnover component was less relevant.

  • NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC TRAVELER Swiss Tracks
    Swiss Tracks FIVE GREAT TRAIN ESCAPES FOR ALL SEASONS With the Matterhorn in the distance, a sledder CREDIT PHOTO glides through the Alpine village of Findeln, Switzerland. NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC TRAVELER 95 BY EVERETT POTTER all it Europe’s track star. Though small—this Alpine nation is about the size of Massachusetts and Connecticut combined— Switzerland offers some of the world’s most spectacular scenery, Cfrom glacial lakes to misty peaks. And nearly every adventure is connected by train. A classic route like the Golden Pass from Lucerne to Montreux can be done in a single day packed with sights and heights, including views of the highest Alps. But why rush? Part of the romance of rail travel is the sense of timelessness it affords. The Wilhelm Tell Express, a panoramic boat- and-train tour that crosses Lake Lucerne and rolls into Italian-influenced Lugano, connects areas ideal for summertime hikes. The Glacier Express from Zermatt to St. Moritz chugs across the heart of the Alps through 91 tunnels and over 291 bridges. From urban trams in artful Zürich to cogwheel trains up mountains and a few bus rides along the way, you can cover an entire nation by rail, boat, and bus, with a romantic (and hypnotic) click-clack as your sound track. In Switzerland, curiosity rides on rails. Here are five thematic train journeys across a multilingual, multicultural country. All aboard!

Rizzi, A. Finizio, V. Maggi, S. Villa Dept. of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Milano - Bicocca, Piazza della Scienza 1, 20126, Milano, Italy article info abstract Article history: We analysed the spatial and temporal distribution of a selection of pesticides in Alpine glaciers used on Received 4 December 2018 the Po Plain in Northern Italy, near the Alps. By analysing a 102-m ice core taken from the Lys Glacier Received in revised form (Monte Rosa massif, Italy), we highlight historical contamination from the insecticide chlorpyrifos and 20 February 2019 the herbicide terbuthylazine, confirming the role of alpine glaciers as temporal sinks. Accepted 21 February 2019 In addition, we collected meltwater samples from six glaciers distributed along the Alpine Arc during Available online 26 February 2019 the summer of 2016, which showed widespread contamination by pesticides. Overall, chlorpyrifos and terbuthylazine dominated the contaminant fingerprint of all of the studied glaciers, with contamination Keywords: Pesticides peaks occurring at the beginning of the melting season. This highlights the importance of the medium- Glacial meltwater range atmospheric transport of these pesticides in connection with agricultural practices in the areas Ice core beneath the Italian Alps, where they are widely applied. Environmental risk assessment (ERA) The release of pesticides in meltwater can lead to potential risks to the aquatic ecosystems of head- Alps water streams, as we demonstrate for chlorpyrifos. This suggests that the medium-range atmospheric transport of pesticides should be considered as part of regulations to protect the water quality of these pristine environments.
