Alpine glaciers: evolution and climate impact

Alpine glaciers are key indicators of climate change. Since 1850, their surface area has significantly decreased. This interactive map helps users explore glacier evolution in the Alps, their altitude, and their environmental impact.

Why are glaciers melting?

Global warming is accelerating glacier melt. This affects ecosystems, freshwater resources, and sea level rise.
