  1. GMBA report 2010 and outlookEva Spehn & Christian Körner GMBA, Institute of Botany, U Basel, SwitzerlandDIVERSITAS SC meeting Paris, 22 March 2011

  2. Special issue onMountain Biodiversity of Plant Ecology &Diversity in 2011

  3. Policy input: Report for Council of Europe on „Impacts of climate change on mountain biodiversity in Europe“ Oct. 2010

  4. Brochure„Mountain Biodiversity and global change“ presented at COP 10 in Nagoya

  5. Data Mining by Thermal Belts of GMBA mountain portal Nival Upper alpine Lower alpine Upper montane Lower montane Warm zone Perpet. warm zone Percent of Sampling Points in GMBA web portal EU Alps Himalayas-Hindukush

  6. Spatial Query Result: e.g. all orchids in GMBA webportal for HKH Where did we sample, and where should we sample? Where are the gaps? How to fill gaps ?

  7. GMBA-ICIMOD-GBIF workshop/ training on “Open Access to Mountain Biodiversity Data of the Hindu Kush Himalayan region” Kathmandu, Nepal 14th -18th June 2010

  8. Challenges ahead • Increase the amount and quality of biodiv. data in mountains • Digitisation and mobilisation, metadata, inaccuracy estimates • Improve mountain portal • Feedback on data quality • Polygons of each mountain region • Overlay with UNEP-WCMC protected areas & other databases • Global assessment of GBIF data in mountains • -> contribute to CBD Mountain programme, IPBES • Global network of alpine LTER sites
