Differences in Preferences towards Potential Future Landscapes in the Swiss Alps
Land abandonment followed by spontaneous reforestation has been an ongoing process in the Swiss Alps, especially on steep and relatively inaccessible slopes and on alpine summering pastures. This study aims to identify and explain differences in preferences towards potential future landscapes: 1) between landscape settings at different elevation belts (e.g. valley bottom, forest clearings at medium elevations, alpine pastures above the forest bel…
Beyond the visual dimension
The Future of the Swiss Alps
In the Swiss Alps, as in other European Alpine regions, agricultural decline is leading to land abandonment and natural reforestation, which may have wider implications for a sustainable development of these areas. A sustainability assessment of three scenarios involving discussions with a local stakeholder group was performed as part of a case study in the Swiss canton of Grisons. The first scenario, called "liberalisation", assumed withdrawal o…
Agricultural Decline, Landscape Change, and Outmigration
As in many other mountain areas, peripheral regions of the Swiss Alps are experiencing outmigration, especially of younger people, due to lack of opportunities. Winter tourism, often the backbone of regional economies, is declining in many small- and medium-sized resorts. At the same time, agricultural decline is leading to land abandonment and natural reforestation, which may have implications for the sustainability of development in these areas…
