Coping with climate change Coping with climate change
What have we learned so far about how climate change is affecting our global environment? Studies show that it adversely affects human and natural systems by • reducing biodiversity • altering hydrological systems • impairing biological and chemical cycles • making it more difficult to restore degraded ecosystems Climate is not the only factor in the deterioration of natural systems.We...

Long-duration drought variability and impacts on ecosystem services: A case study from Glacier National Park, Montana Long-duration drought variability and impacts on ecosystem services: A case study from Glacier National Park, Montana
Instrumental climate records suggest that summer precipitation and winter snowpack in Glacier National Park (Glacier NP), Montana, vary significantly over decadal to multidecadal time scales. Because instrumental records for the region are limited to the twentieth century, knowledge of the range of variability associated with these moisture anomalies and their impacts on ecosystems and...

Topography and vegetation as predictors of snow water equivalent across the alpine treeline ecotone at Lee Ridge, Glacier National Park, Montana, U.S.A. Topography and vegetation as predictors of snow water equivalent across the alpine treeline ecotone at Lee Ridge, Glacier National Park, Montana, U.S.A.
We derived and implemented two spatial models of May snow water equivalent (SWE) at Lee Ridge in Glacier National Park, Montana. We used the models to test the hypothesis that vegetation structure is a control on snow redistribution at the alpine treeline ecotone (ATE). The statistical models were derived using stepwise and “best” subsets regression techniques. The first model was...

National parks and protected areas: Appoaches for balancing social, economic, and ecological values National parks and protected areas: Appoaches for balancing social, economic, and ecological values
The balance of nature in any strict sense has been upset long ago…The only option we have is to create a new balance objectively determined for each area in accordance with the intended use of that area.” --Aldo Leopold, 1927, in a letter to the Superintendent of Glacier National Park The planning and management staff of state/national parks and protected areas face a complex set of...
