España, Francia y Andorra luchan contra el cambio climático en los Pirineos
Four projects of the Pyrenean Observatory of Climate Change (OPCC) have been awarded with european funds. Thanks to this funding the OPCC will carry out during the next three years an action plan for the adaptation to Climate Change. This consolidates the Observatory as the most relevant transboundary cooperation initiative between Spain, France and Andorre on this matter.

Vielha i el CSIC impulsen l’observatori de llacs del Pirineu
The Municipality of Vielha-Mig Aran and the CSIC will collaborate to promote the investigations carried out by the LOOP at the Center for High Mountain Research located. The Center is located in Aran and next year its 30th aniversary will be celebrated. The municipality is involved in an international project to spread the concern about the sustainable use of water among citizens.

Entrevista a Jordi Catalan, distingit amb el Premi Medi Ambient de l’Institut d’Estudis Catalans
How does climate change affects high mountain lakes? What is ecology? What influence do humans exert on our environment? "El Cafè de la República" talks about it with Jordi Catalan, Ph. D. in Biology for the University of Barcelona and researcher of the Centre de Recerca Ecològica i Aplicacions Forestals (CREAF) and the LOOP, recently awarded with the Premi de Medi Ambient (Environment Award) of the Institut d'Estudis Catalans.

El cambio climático y la alteración de los lagos
A study by LOOP researchers shows that human activities and the global change have direct consequences on high mountain lakes. The work has detected an increase in the atmospheric phosphorus that is deposited on the lakes, and the results prove changes in their chemical composition. Since the 80's, the human impact has produced also an increase in the atmospheric deposition of nitrogen.

El dipòsit atmosfèric afecta el funcionament ecològic dels estanys pirinencs
Alfred Rodríguez Picó interviews Lluís Camarero in his TV show on BTV. Lluís talks on the recent results published in Nature Communications. Atmospheric fluxes of N and P affect the ecological functioning of high mountain lakes in the Pyrenees in an unsuspected way.

L’escassedat de neu afecta les reserves d’aigua
Snow is arriving very late this season at the Pyrenees. By the end of January the amount of snow in the mountains is well below the average, and the water supply to lowlands during the spring thaw is at risk. TV reporters climbed to lake Redon together with LOOP's researchers during one of the regular field trips to monitor the ice cover of the lake. Still only a thin layer of clear ice covers the lake, when a thicker snow and ice cover could be expected.
