  • Influence on vulnerability
Because of the higher level of precipitations and the relatively cold temperatures, high altitude locations will enjoy more snowfall in the near future (Agrawala 2007; Beniston 2009). Because of the potential of good snow cover and because of the relative good situation in comparison to lower Alpine regions, these areas will benefit from the situation at a 2050 time horizon (Agrawala 2007). The higher the score, the lower the exposure.
