Starting in 2026, we have kicked-off a new 3-year project on Alpine climate-induced natural hazards, called AlpSenseAdapt. The AlpSenseAdapt project focuses on the analysis of process cascades in high mountain regions and integrates the findings into physically based predictive models. Focus lies on the interfaces of cryospheric, hydrospheric, geochemical, geomorphological, and biological processes. Through interdisciplinary collaboration across various fields of expertise, the project contributes to improved management and enhanced safety in the region.
This is a cooperative research project of the TUM Chair of Landslide research, the LMU GeoBio Center and 3DRealityMaps, the PH Burgenland, the Bayerische Akademie der Wissenschaften Glaciology, the TUM Chair of Analytical Chemistry and Water Chemistry, the TUM Chair of Engineering Geodesy, and the TUM Chair of Ecosystem dynamics and forest management in mountain landscapes with Nationalpark Berchtesgaden. The project is funded by the Bavarian State Ministry of the Environment and Consumer Protection (STMUV).
