摘要: This study assesses the global mountain population, population change over 1975–2015 time-range, and urbanisation for 2015. The work uses World Conservation Monitoring Centre (WCMC) definition of areas combined with that range outlines generated by Global Mountain Biodiversity Assessment (GMBA). We estimated from Human Settlement Layer Population spatial grids, a set density layers used to measure human presence on planet Earth. show has increased 550 million in 1975 1050 is concentrated ranges at low latitudes. most populated are also urbanised those grow most. Urbanisation mountains (66%) lower than lowlands (78%). However, 34% live cities, 31% towns semi-dense areas, 35% rural areas. rate varies considerably across ranges. assessments total, trends, may be address issue “not leave people behind” sustainable development process understand trajectories change.
