GLORIA Andes

 GLORIA-Andes has established a network of summit observation sites across the entire tropical Andes, stretching from Venezuela to northern Argentina. Being part of the international GLORIA network, GLORIA-Andes is also connected to a regional monitoring system for the assessment of climate change impacts on the biodiversity of the high Andes. This system provides data-based information for developing mitigation and adaptation activities in order to reduce ecosystem vulnerability in tropical high mountain environments.
