For all ski resorts in China and all climate change scenarios, average ski seasons are projected to shorten (-4 to -61% RCP 4.5; -6 to -79% RCP 8.5 in the 2050s) while snowmaking needs increase (27 to 51% RCP 4.5; 46 to 80% RCP 8.5 in the 2050s). The results indicate that ...
Many skiers around the world, most recently in Europe, are already seeing the impacts of climate change.Ski seasons are often shortened compared to previous years and resorts are increasingly depending on manufactured snow. A man practices Nordic skiing despite the lack of snow in La Feclaz, ...
摘要: Climate change and increased skier density is increasing ski run reworking, use of artificial snow and snow grooming. Few studies are available on these engineering impacts on slope stability...关键词: Artificial snow Infiltration Permeability Soil properties Ski slope stability DOI...
2021). Understanding how the concept can operate in highly vulnerable areas, where development is most urgent and climate change impacts are greatest, remains a critical knowledge gap addressed in this paper. Three vulnerable geographies in the context of climate change and development are highlands ...
On average, the study predicts a shorter ski-season length, especially in low-altitude ski resorts in a moderate climate change scenario and for all ski resorts in a more intensive climate change scenario. However, a significant regional variability has been identified for the projected impacts at...
Existing nation-wide studies on climate change impacts on the tourism usually do not account for the specificities of the respective microclimates, not to mention existing local strategies or adaptive capacities (e.g. a ski resort’s snowmaking infrastructure and snowmaking strategy) – and hence ...
Due to climate change in the European Alpine environment where a lack of snow during winter is becoming more frequent, ski pistes are increasingly created with artificial snow. Besides the 4 large regional ski resorts in South Tyrol, 38 small local ski resorts are present. These small ski ...

In this article I’ll share with you some of the latest findings from this report. This report is limited to how climate change is affecting the USA, but some of these impacts can be generalized to other parts of the world as well. ...
Climate change will negatively affect coastal resorts, tropical rain forests, wildlife safaris, Arctic and Antarctic regions and alpine ski resorts. So the changing climate is likely to pose a profound challenge to sustainable tourism in some locations, and may provide new opportunities in others. ...
