La distribution actuelle des espèces constituant l'association végétale de Teesdale est le résultat des changements écologiques flandriens. Les données paléoécologiques de CronkleyFell (Upper Teesdale National Nature Reserve) montrent que la
The impact of elevation, topography and snow load damage of trees on the position of the actual timberline on the fells in central Finnish Lapland
affecting these positions and snow load damage to trees on the fells Aakenustunturi, Yllästunturi and Pyhätunturi. The potential for ascending timberlines in the region is also discussed.
The precipitation climate of the swedish fells during the 20th century - some remarkable features in Climatological extremes in the mountains, Physical background, geomorphological and ecological consequences.
The influence of sediment supply on the channel morphology of upland streams : Howgill Fells, Northwest England
for channel morphology and stability. This paper examines these implications in British upland fluvial systems, with particular reference to the Howgill Fells, Cumbria, in the contexts of the adjustment of stream channels to sediment supply from erosional
Coupling between hillslopes and channels in upland fluvial systems : implications for landscape sensitivity, illustrated from the Howgill Fells, northwest England
This paper assesses the role of hillslope/channel coupling for the sensitivity of upland geomorphic systems, using evidence from a 30-year monitoring programme of geomorphic change in the Carlingill valley, Howgill Fells, northwest England
this relationship on three points. Two of the points lie on a glacial till slope, one in an old spruce forest and the other in a clear felled area. The third point lies on a clear felled area on level sediment. This study mainly deals with the period when the soils
effect. The weather conditions and microclimate in the fells differ from those in the lower areas. Temperature inversion is a common phenomenon on the slopes. Heavy snow loads in the crowns of the trees are a prominent feature of the southern fells

En juin 1982, une tempête d'une grande intensité a provoqué une crue brutale et des actions d'érosion et de sédimentation majeures dans les Howgill Fells (N W de l'Angleterre). Trois types de modifications géomorphologiques sont identifiées. Sur les
Examples of the depth, sharpness and duration of ground inversions in Finnish Lapland. The data include long-term measurements at fixed points in valleys along slopes and on tops of fells as well as temporary line measurements made from a moving car.
The zonal vegetation in the Taihang mountains is dominated by deciduous broad-leaf forest showing strong vertical distribution of sub-types, culminating in sub-alpine shrub meadow at the top. A long history of excessive felling and destruction
