ScopeMountainous areas provide 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, hydrology, geography, glaciology, water/carbon/material cycle, eco-diversity, etc.
