MOOCs sind weltweit verfügbare online-Lehreinheiten aus Videos, Foren, Aufgaben und Tests. Auch die WSL bietet MOOCs an.
agriculture in Europe has changed and what options we have
Die Blue Green Biodiversity Forschungsinitiative ist eine Zusammenarbeit zwischen Eawag und WSL mit dem Ziel, die Biodiversität an der Schnittstelle von aquatischen und terrestrischen Ökosystemen zu untersuchen.

In this ambitious project, we study ecological effects of permafrost thaw in the Swiss Alps.
Nevertheless, both policy makers and researchers have
Our project, which proposes a novel approach (i.e., the use of virus-like particles), is key for the fundamental biological understanding of the transport and fate of nanoparticles in forest trees. Possible immediate applications include the development of new solutions for the nano-enabled foliar-a
Virus-like particles (VLPs) have b Eidg.
Using advanced dendrometer technology, we aim to unravel drought stress and growth patterns in European forests. By developing new analysis methods and leveraging a network of research sites, it seeks to pinpoint areas most vulnerable to drought across Central Europe.
Once the methods to disentangle dendrometer signals have
Alpine regions are subject to dangerous rapid mass movements like debris flows, avalanches and rock falls. Applying intelligent algorithms to seismograms of such events we propose to increase warning and monitoring capabilities.
We have integrated the seismic detection algorithm
Which are the main mechanisms conveying adaptation on the organ and whole tree level, how fast does acclimation occur and how long is an acclimation potential sustained?

Many long-term interdisciplinary projects have been
Spotlight leverages options to mitigate negative impacts on the ecological environment while meeting human needs for safety and well-being. With an interdisciplinary consortium of lighting engineers, ecologists, and social scientists, we contribute to an evidence-based debate on light pollution.
The project will have a broad impact beyond academia
