Scope The Japanese Alps region is located at the boundary of three crustal plates producing complicated and unique geological situations in the world. This "the roof of Japan" provides water resources to the populated downstream areas, protecting the diversity of ecosystem and providing tourism attraction. To access the mountain environment changes and mitigate the impacts of global warming influences, a cross-cutting session is proposed to share the scientific knowledge among various fields; such as climatology, geology, glaciology, water/carbon/material cycle specialists, eco-diversity, etc.
