Mountains are rugged structures in the landscape that are difficult to delineate. Given that they host an overproportional fraction of biodiversity of high ecological and conservational value, conventions on what is mountainous and what not are in need. This short communication aims at explaining the differences among various popular mountain definitions. Defining mountainous terrain is key for global assessments of plant species richness in mountains and their likely responses to climatic change, as well as for assessing the human population density in and around mountainous terrain.

山脉的定义及其后果

山脉是景观中难以描绘的崎岖结构。鉴于它们拥有过高比例的具有高生态和保护价值的生物多样性,因此需要就什么是山区、什么不是山区制定公约。这个简短的交流旨在解释各种流行的山脉定义之间的差异。定义山区地形对于全球评估山区植物物种丰富度及其对气候变化的可能反应以及评估山区及其周围的人口密度至关重要。
