  • Workshop on Transboundary Wildlife Management
    ALPBIONET2030 Integrative Alpine wildlife and habitat management for the next generation REPORT Workshop on Transboundary wildlife management 10 October 2017, Trenta, Triglav National Park, Slovenia (Alpbionet2030 – Work Package 2) Integrative Alpine wildlife and habitat management for the next generation A workshop to discuss tactics and devise actions for transboundary wildlife management between the wildlife managers of Transboundary Ecoregion Julian Alps, defined as the sum of Triglav Hunting Management Area and Gorenjska Hunting Management Area (Slovenia) and Tarvisiano Hunting District (Italy) with their core protected areas of Triglav National Park and Prealpi Giulie Nature Park, was held at the conference facilities of the “Dom Trenta” National Park house in Trenta. This Workshop is one of the activities of WP T.2 of the Alpbionet2030 project co- financed by the EU Alpine Space Programme. INTRODUCTION The behaviour and habitat use of animals can be strongly affected by hunting methods and wildlife management strategies. Hunting and wildlife management therefore have an influence on ecological connectivity. Lack of consistency in wildlife management between regions can cause problems for population connectivity for some species, particularly those with large home ranges, (e.g. some deer and large carnivores). Hunting seasons, feeding (or lack thereof), the existence of resting zones where hunting is prohibited, legal provisions for wildlife corridors, even administrative authority for wildlife management differ from one Alpine country to another. The Mountain Forest Protocol of the Alpine Convention (1996) asks parties to harmonise their measures for regulating the game animals, but so far this is only happening in a few isolated instances. Thus, to further the goals of ecological connectivity, ALPBIONET2030 aims coordinate wildlife management in selected pilot areas.

  • Moüjmtaiim Operations
    L f\f¿ áfó b^i,. ‘<& t¿ ytn) ¿L0d àw 1 /1 ^ / / /This publication contains copyright material. *FM 90-6 FieW Manual HEADQUARTERS No We DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY Washington, DC, 30 June 1980 MOÜJMTAIIM OPERATIONS PREFACE he purpose of this rUanual is to describe how US Army forces fight in mountain regions. Conditions will be encountered in mountains that have a significant effect on. military operations. Mountain operations require, among other things^ special equipment, special training and acclimatization, and a high decree of self-discipline if operations are to succeed. Mountains of military significance are generally characterized by rugged compartmented terrain witn\steep slopes and few natural or manmade lines of communication. Weather in these mountains is seasonal and reaches across the entireSspectrum from extreme cold, with ice and snow in most regions during me winter, to extreme heat in some regions during the summer. AlthoughNthese extremes of weather are important planning considerations, the variability of weather over a short period of time—and from locality to locahty within the confines of a small area—also significantly influences tactical operations. Historically, the focal point of mountain operations has been the battle to control the heights. Changes in weaponry and equipment have not altered this fact. In all but the most extreme conditions of terrain and weather, infantry, with its light equipment and mobility, remains the basic maneuver force in the mountains. With proper equipment and training, it is ideally suited for fighting the close-in battfe commonly associated with mountain warfare. Mechanized infantry can\also enter the mountain battle, but it must be prepared to dismount and conduct operations on foot.

  • Traversée Dirruhorn-Nadelhorn Ou Nadelgrat (Course Non Réalisée – Texte En Cours D’Écriture)∗
    Nadelhorn, 4327 m Traversée Dirruhorn-Nadelhorn ou Nadelgrat (Course non réalisée – Texte en cours d’écriture)∗ Les arêtes dont on décrit la traversée dans ces feuillets, qui relient le Dirruhorn (4035 m) au Nadelhorn (4327 m) suivant un axe NW-SE, font partie des Mischabel. Le Massif des Mischabels1 est parfois défini comme la chaîne montagneuse orientée nord-sud qui sé- pare les vallées de Zermatt à l’ouest et de Saas à l’est, dans le canton du Valais en Su- isse [5]. Selon cette description hydrologique, il serait normal de la faire descendre jusqu’au Schwarzberghorn (3609 m), qui est le point de partage des eaux entre les deux vaux préc- ités et le Val Anzasca en Italie, ou en tout cas de trouver un nom à cette chaîne. Cette définition donnerait au Massif des Mischabels une collection de 11 sommets de plus de 4000 m2 ; une fameuse brochette, contenant donc plus d’un huitième de l’ensemble des 82 sommets de plus de 4000 m des Alpes, homologués par UIAA3. Mais voilà, pour une raison qui nous échappe, la coutume en a décidé autrement et certains auteurs donnent au Mas- sif des Mischabels une étendue moindre au sud, en le limitant à l’Hohlaubgrat à l’Allalin (4027 m) [5], à l’Alphubel (4206 m) [4 ; p. 105] ou même au Täschhorn (4491 m) [2 ; p. 4]. On ne sera pas surpris d’apprendre, qu’avec de telles altitudes, cette échine de sommets forme une barrière difficilement franchissable ; son col le plus bas permettant de la traverser s’élève en effet déjà à 3539 m (situé près du col Schwarzberg Weisstor, qui lui fait 3562 m, il est sans nom sur la CNS), mais est difficile à franchir à cause d’une barre rocheuse4.

  • In Memoriam 115
    IN MEMORIAM 115 • IN MEMORIAM CLAUDE WILSON 1860-1937 THE death of Claude Wilson within a few weeks of attaining his seventy-seventh birthday came as a terrible shock to his many friends. Few of us even knew that he was ill, but in the manner of his passing none can regret that there was no lingering illness. We can but quote his own words in Lord Conway's obituary: 'the best we can wish for those that we love is that they may be spared prolonged and hopeless ill health.' His brain remained clear up to the last twenty-four hours and he suffered no pain. The end occurred on October 31. With Claude Wilson's death an epoch of mountaineering comes to an end. He was of those who made guideless and Alpine history from Montenvers in the early 'nineties, of whom but Collie, Kesteven, Bradby, ~olly and Charles Pasteur still survive. That school, in which Mummery and Morse were perhaps the most prominent examples, was not composed of specialists. Its members had learnt their craft under the best Valais and Oberland guides; they were equally-proficient on rocks or on snow. It mattered little who was acting as leader in the ascent or last man in the descent. They were prepared to turn back if conditions or weather proved unfavourable. They took chances as all mountaineers are forced to do at times­ but no fatal accidents, no unfortunate incidents, marred that great page of Alpine history, a page not confined to Mont Blanc alone but distributed throughout the Western Alps.

  • Val Ferret Pilot Action Region Grandes Jorasses
    Chapter Val Ferret Pilot Action Region: Grandes Jorasses Glaciers - An Open-Air Laboratory for the Development of Close-Range Remote Sensing Monitoring Systems Paolo Perret, Jean Pierre Fosson, Luca Mondardini and Valerio Segor Abstract The Val Ferret valley (Courmayeur, Aosta Valley, Italy) was included as a Pilot Action Region (PAR) of the GreenRisk4Alps project since it is both a famous tourist location and a high-risk area for all types of mass movement processes. Typical natural hazards that endanger this PAR are debris flows and avalanches, sometimes connected to ice collapses from the glaciers of the Mont Blanc massif. Thanks to the steep sides of the valley and widespread alluvial channels, these events can reach the valley floor, where public roads, villages and touristic attractions are located. This article presents the main challenges of natural hazard management in the Val Ferret PAR, as well as the role of forestry and protective forests in the Aosta Valley Autonomous Region. As an example of good practice, the monitoring systems of the Planpincieux and Grandes Jorasses glaciers are presented. Recently, these glaciers have become an open-air laboratory for glacial monitoring techniques. Many close- range surveys have been conducted here, and a permanent network of monitoring systems that measure the surface deformation of the glaciers is currently active. Keywords: Val Ferret, protective forest, Mont Blanc, Aosta Valley, monitoring, glacial hazards, remote sensing 1. Introduction Courmayeur (1,224 m asl) is a small mountain town located in the Aosta Valley Autonomous Region, in northwestern Italy. It is a famous tourist destination whose fame and history are largely related to the presence of the Mont Blanc massif, which is one of the most renowned attractions in the Alps.
