Description
Summary:Glaciers and glacier forelands are the most impressive landscapes in the inner Oetz Valley (Tyrol, Austria). Since 1858, the glaciers of the area are retreating more or less continuously, releasing new areas for colonization. The main aim of book no. 1 of the Alpine Research Centre Obergurgl is to present the research at the Rotmoosferner glacier foreland and the knowledge of glacial environments in a comprehensive way. The book provides baseline informations for students, prospective scientists, field courses and for interested lay people.
Gletscher und Gletschervorfelder prägen in besonders eindrucksvoller Weise das innere Ötztal (Tirol, Österreich). Sie sind von besonderem wissenschaftlichem Interesse, zumal der Gletscherrückgang nun seit 1858 nahezu kontinuierlich anhält. Das Buch Nr. 1 der Alpinen Forschungsstelle Obergurgl verdeutlicht in umfassender Weise die Forschungstätigkeit speziell im Gletschervorfeld des Rotmoosferners und in seinem weiteren Umfeld. Grundlageninformationen werden bereitgestellt für Studierende, angehende WissenschaftlerInnen, Exkursions- und PraktikumsleiterInnen, aber auch für interessierte Laien.
