Loss and damage associated with tropical glaciers in Peru: Importance of the National Inventory of Glaciers

Abstract

Peru concentrates more than 70% of the world's tropical glaciers, so it is of great urgency to make visible the irreversible impacts of climate change on these ecosystems and the actions that must be carried out in the shortest possible term; considering the additional warming expected under a high emissions scenario by 2050 in mountain glacier ecosystems.
