Extended Data Fig. 8: An integrative approach to consider and preserve glaciers and emerging postglacial ecosystems.
From: Future emergence of new ecosystems caused by glacial retreat

On the left side (A), we propose a systemic relation linking glaciers and postglacial ecosystems to nature and societies and describe their possible consideration through anthropocentric, bio-ecocentric or integrative views. On the right side (B), we propose a stewardship framework based on three levels of actions (A1-A3) to enhance glaciers and postglacial ecosystems protection.
