High Mountain Summit
Mountain weather, water, and climate: pathways to a sustainable global future
The long-term goal is to ensure that people that live in mountains, and those that are influenced by mountain Earth system processes downstream, have access to, and use fit-for-purpose hydrological, meteorological, and climate information and knowledge that reflect the importance of mountain regions as a home of the cryosphere, and as a source of global freshwater and ecosystem services for the world.
