Two articles in this open issue focus on ski resorts in the USA and how they can respond to climate change: one presents a voluntary environmental program for large resorts, the other analyzes climate change impacts and adaptation action. A comprehensive review of literature on adaptation action in mountain areas worldwide emphasizes the need to close the adaptation gap in mountains. Further articles present a scoping review of irrigation systems in the Upper Indus Basin; investigate environmental attitudes and perceptions of runners competing in an ultramarathon in the highlands of Iceland; and analyze the shear strength of purple topsoil under different land uses in the Three Gorges Reservoir area in China.

REMINDER ABOUT CALL FOR PAPERS ON KNOWLEDGE COLLABORATIONS FOR THE WELLBEING OF MOUNTAIN PEOPLES AND REGIONS
Reminder: Mountain Research and Development still invites contributions for a focus issue on “Weaving Together Knowledges—Collaborations in Support of the Wellbeing of Mountain Peoples and Regions.” Papers should explore and provide examples of how mountain researchers and Indigenous Peoples or other holders of place-based knowledge can collaborate to guide knowledge creation and application. Contributions by scientists and Indigenous or other local knowledge holders are equally welcome. Read the full call for papers and submit your work by 15 February 2022 https://bit.ly/3jYOYL7
