Bolzano – Today, more plant species are growing on Europe's mountain peaks than two decades ago. However, this positive development at first glance conceals the increasing loss of typical high mountain plants.

The European mountains are becoming more green on the background of climate warming, but the species adapted to the cold disappear from the high altitude zones. Researchers have analyzed for over 20 years the vegetation of 62 peaks in Europe. In this sense, researchers have followed 896 surfaces from 16 mountain regions, evaluated four times between [...]
