Glacier changes on Nevado de Santa Isabel, Colombia

Year: 2007 Author: Hugo Ahlenius, UNEP/GRID-Arendal
Description:
With spectacular mountain peak glaciers melting away, the NEvado de Santa Isabel area in Colombia becomes less attractive to tourists. In addition, the local forestry and agricultural fertility suffer may suffer from reduced spring water. The retreat of glaciers is an indicator for changes in regional and global climate.
