Mountain Science
BioOne Vista | December 2024
Mountain communities face unique challenges from climate change, environmental degradation, and poverty, making ecological research essential for their resilience and sustainable future. To find innovative solutions, montology research integrates the ecological, biological, and environmental sciences and offers strategies for adapting to these challenges, conserving biodiversity, and promoting sustainable resource use.
In celebration of International Mountains Day, this collection highlights peer-reviewed studies from BioOne Complete partners, including African Zoology, Harvard Papers in Botany, Journal of the Kentucky Academy of Science, Mountain Research and Development, Northeastern Naturalist, Polish Journal of Ecology, and more.
