Although considered globally important areas for birds and biodiversity in general, mountain regions remain poorly studied despite their renowned susceptibility to climatic alterations. Basic knowledge of bird species inhabiting these regions is scarce, and even a univocal definition of mountain regions lacks, as interpretations vary across countries and institutions. These ambiguities may prevent the definition of effective large-scale conservation strategies, and it is urgent to define “mountain birds” and investigate the potential impact of climate change on such species. In this thesis, we reviewed evidence for impacts of climate change on Holarctic mountain bird populations in terms of physiology, phenology, trophic interactions, demog...
