Ski tourism plays a major socio-economic role in the snowy and mountainous areas of Europe such as Alps, Pyrenees, Nordic Europe, Eastern Anatolia, etc. Past future climate change has an impact on operating conditions ski resorts, due to their reliance natural snowfall favorable for snowmaking. However, there is currently lack assessment past resorts at pan-European scale context change. The presented work aims filling this gap, part "European Tourism" Sectoral Information System (SIS)...
Ski tourism is a major sector of mountain regions economy, which under the threat long-term climate change. Snow management, and in particular grooming artificial snowmaking, has become routine component ski resort operations, holding potential for counteracting detrimental effect natural snow decline. However, conventional snowmaking can only operate specific meteorological conditions. Whether relevant adaptation measure future change widely debated issue mountainous regions, with...
Abstract. Climate change is increasingly regarded as a threat for winter tourism due to the combined effect of decreasing natural snow amounts and suitable periods snowmaking. The present work investigated reliability 175 ski resorts in France (Alps Pyrenees), Spain Andorra under past future conditions using state-of-the-art snowpack modelling climate projections Representative Concentration Pathways RCP2.6, RCP4.5 RCP8.5. (i.e. without snowmaking) elevation showed significant spatial...
Abstract This study investigates the relationship between snow conditions and snowmaking investments for over 100 French Alps ski resorts. Investment trends represent a critical issue in capital-intensive sectors such as industry. The data are based on reliability indicators covering 1997–2014. Descriptive statistics reveal that has been second investment item resorts regardless of elevation or resort size. finds highly negatively correlated to prior year small medium-sized Other factors...
This study presents the evolution of snow reliability in 24 alpine ski resorts Isère département (Northern French Alps, around Grenoble) over last decades and its projection into 21st century, taking account grooming snowmaking. The water demand for snowmaking is calculated can be compared with hydrological simulations resource availability, under current future climate conditions. Over recent period, has significantly improved conditions seasons a natural deficit. For middle projections...
Many mountainous regions in Europe, including their tourism sectors, show a high degree of economic specialization. The ski industry forms part the long-standing success French Alps. Over past 20 years, snowmaking has become key feature tourism, but future climate change will decrease its effectiveness as an adaptation solution to natural snow cover reduction. However, does not seem be intent on stopping investment snowmaking, which raises question dependence this technology. In study, we...
Six years have passed since the European Commission published its Roadmap for Climate Services (2015). Nowadays, this domain is characterized by a complex constellation of different products, services, and actors. Indeed, definitions climate services adopted WMO Union are very vague, leading to possible mismatches between users' expectations producers' offers in terms services. Consequently, several authors institutions terminologies. For example, Weichselgartner Arheimer (2019) argue...
Abstract. Snow reliability is a key climatic impact driver for the ski tourism industry, although there are only few studies addressing past changes in snow resorts accounting management practices (grooming and snowmaking, particular). This study provides an assessment of natural managed cover from 1961 to 2019 French Alps. In particular, we used snowmaking investment figures infer evolution coverage at resort scale 16 Alps, which together with detailed modelling system driven by local...
Cette étude présente l'évolution de la fiabilité l'enneigement des 24 domaines ski alpin du département l'Isère sur les dernières années et sa projection au XXIe siècle en prenant compte le damage neige culture. La demande eau pour sécuriser est ainsi calculée peut être comparée aux modélisations disponibilité ressource eau, reconstituée avec un modèle hydrologique, climats actuel futur. Sur période récente, production culture améliore nettement conditions d'enneigement saisons déficit...

In the context of adapting to global changes, diversification tourist offer seems be a solution for mid-mountain areas, which are structured around and dependent on ski tourism. However, it remains unclear how tourism occurs, what forms can take produces at territorial scale. this study, we apply theory regional case in order examine paths. We base our analysis qualitative data collected two French study areas: intercommunities massif du Sancy Haut-Chablais. Our results show pattern paths,...

Abstract. Snow reliability is a key climatic impact driver for the ski tourism industry, which there more literature regarding future projections than past observed impacts. This study provides an assessment of changes in natural and managed snow cover from 1961 to 2018 French Alps. In particular, we used snowmaking investment figures infer evolution coverage at resort scale 16 resorts We find different benefits management reduce variability long term decrease because heterogeneity...
