The high mountain is a valuable natural laboratory for many categories of scientists: geologists, meteorologists, climatologists, biologists, botanists, zoologists, physicists, astronomers. Only in high mountains, in the last half century, astronomy and physics, the extremely large and the extremely small, were able to connect to such an extent that today it is almost impossible to talk about astronomy and cosmology without speaking simultaneously about physics and elementary particles. The book, entirely focused on research stations in the high mountains, both in Europe and the world, is full of fascinating topics. High altitude research stations mean all laboratories which are located at a minimum of 2.500 meters over the sea level. Born in Europe in the late nineteenth century, at the dawn of modern science, now they're all over the world. The oldest European observatory, for example, is on the Pic du Midi (2.877 m.) built in 1878, and the highest laboratory in the world is on the Chacaltaya (La Paz) inaugurated in 1940 at 5.200 meters over the sea level. The volume edited by Alba Zanini, also curator of Inventions Discoveries and Machines, in addition to speaking about the high mountain laboratories, focuses on the fascination that the high peaks have exercised on poets and artists, reconstructs the historical events of the early pioneers of scientific research at high altitude and devotes space to large underground laboratories such as that under the Gran Sasso in the Central Apennines, and the big experiments at high altitudes currently underway in Chile and Argentina. This is the English language edition.

This book presents the results of 20 years of atmospheric composition research studies carried out at the high-mountain (2,165 m a.s.l.) Observatory "O. Vittori" in Italy, part of the only global station in the Mediterranean region that belongs to the World Meteorological Organization’s Global Atmosphere Watch (WMO/GAW). It provides a comprehensive study with updated results for the most important atmospheric climate-altering and pollutant compounds based on the continuous observations at Mt. Cimone. Further, the book addresses the following main research topics in atmospheric sciences: non-CO2 greenhouse gases, reactive gases, aerosol particles and natural radioactivity. The book also presents an overview of the measurement site (both in terms of its geographical location and technical facilities), as well as extensive climatology references (in the form of plots and tables) for the atmospheric compounds monitored there. As such, it offers a must-read for atmospheric scientists, stakeholders, undergraduate and graduate students in related fields.

This book covers studies on the systematics of plant taxa and will include general vegetational aspects and ecological characteristics of plant life at altitudes above 1000 m. from different parts of the world. This volume also addresses how upcoming climate change scenarios will impact high altitude plant life. It presents case studies from the most important mountainous areas like the Himalayas, Caucasus and South America covering the countries like Malaysia, Sri Lanka, India, Nepal, Pakistan, Kirghizia, Georgia, Russia,Turkey, Indonesia, Malaysia and the Americas. The book will serve as an invaluable resource source undergraduates, graduate students, and researchers.

During the long twentieth century, explorers went in unprecedented numbers to the hottest, coldest, and highest points on the globe. Taking us from the Himalaya to Antarctica and beyond, Higher and Colder presents the first history of extreme physiology, the study of the human body at its physical limits. Each chapter explores a seminal question in the history of science, while also showing how the apparently exotic locations and experiments contributed to broader political and social shifts in twentieth-century scientific thinking. Unlike most books on modern biomedicine, Higher and Colder focuses on fieldwork, expeditions, and exploration, and in doing so provides a welcome alternative to laboratory-dominated accounts of the history of modern life sciences. Though centered on male-dominated practices—science and exploration—it recovers the stories of women’s contributions that were sometimes accidentally, and sometimes deliberately, erased. Engaging and provocative, this book is a history of the scientists and physiologists who face challenges that are physically demanding, frequently dangerous, and sometimes fatal, in the interest of advancing modern science and pushing the boundaries of human ability.
