Abstract/Description
Mountains are playing a major role in shaping the weather and climate of the world. They are among the most sensitive ecosystems to climate change and are experiencing more rapid changes in temperature than environments at lower elevations. The complex topography is a major limiting factor in gaining a deeper understanding of processes and extreme events often associated with mountainous regions. Recent advances in measurement techniques and modelling over the European Alps are, however, enabling progress in our understanding. The proposed session focuses on Alpine weather and climate from past, present, and future, with an emphasis on atmospheric processes and climate change.
The session invites studies using high-resolution observations, reanalyses, numerical weather prediction, climate modelling, and regional downscaling to assess present-day Alpine weather and climate and its future changes. Contributions focusing on process understanding of mountain meteorology, land-atmosphere interactions, and the influence of complex topography on regional climate are particularly encouraged. The session also invites studies of trends in temperature, precipitation, circulation patterns, and extreme weather in the Alpine region.
By linking past, present, and future perspectives, this session aims to advance understanding of the mechanisms governing Alpine weather and climate and to support robust projections of climate change in complex terrain. The session provides a place to discuss recent methodological advances and emerging challenges in mountain climate research.

- On the selected session page, scroll down to get to the section “Submitted abstracts”.
-> this list shows all abstracts submitted to your session.
-> each line shows one abstract - To get to the review section, please click on the “eye” symbol: of the abstract.
-> the abstract expands and new sections (First author, Co-author(s) and description) appear.
-> additional, the abstract review area appears below the abstract content. - The review area gives you now a new panel to adjust:
FOR CO-CHAIRS
-> dropdown menu to set a review recommendation (you can overwrite this recommendation as often as you want)
-> optional: comments to share with your chair-colleagues and the organizing committee (max. 50 characters, not visible for the authors of the abstract)
INFO: You can change your review (incl. comments) for an abstract as often as you want until the chair makes the final decision. Changes are overwritten and not archived.
FOR CHAIRS
-> checkbox to set your final review (when activated, you confirm your final choice and will close the review process of this abstract)
