Accumulation of toxic metals and organic micro-pollutants in sediments from tropical urban rivers, Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of the Congo

Dominique Grandjean, Luiz Felippe De Alencastro

The increasing contamination of fresh water resource by toxic metals and Persistence Organic Pollutants (POPs) is a major environmental concern globally. In the present investigation, surface sediments collected from three main rivers named, Makelele, Kala ...

Validation of Landsat-8 and Sentinel-2 algorithms for atmospheric correction on Lake Geneva

Sonia Joëlle Dupuis

Remote-sensing of water surfaces such as large lakes is a useful tool for monitoring and understanding large-scale processes. Suspended particles in lakes can have various sources such as autochthonously produced organic matter, urban or agricultural runof ...

Reliable estimates of predictive uncertainty for an Alpine catchment using a non-parametric methodology

Anton Schleiss, Bettina Schaefli, José Pedro Gamito de Saldanha Calado Matos

Uncertainty affects hydrological modelling efforts from the very measurements (or forecasts) that serve as inputs to the more or less inaccurate predictions that are produced. Uncertainty is truly inescapable in hydrology and yet, due to the theoretical an ...

Sources and Fate of Microplastics in Swiss Surface Waters

Luiz Felippe De Alencastro, Florian Faure, Olivier Pompini

While plastic pollution in marine environments is getting better known and is the subject of a continuously growing number of publications, fresh- waters still receive too little attention. Some studies worldwide focused on the nature and concentrations of ...

Junction chamber at vortex drop shaft: case study of Cossonay

Michael Pfister, Corrado Gisonni, David Dorthe, Gaetano Crispino, Thierry Fuchsmann

The drainage network of the city of Cossonay (Switzerland) is currently being adapted for future needs. In particular, it is required to drain increased storm discharges due to a population augmentation and to provide an adequate concept to overcome unfavo ...

An interlaboratory study on passive sampling of emerging water pollutants

An inter-laboratory study was organised for the monitoring of emerging aquatic pollutants (pharmaceuticals, pesticides, steroids, brominated diphenyl ethers and others) using passive samplers. Thirty laboratories participated in the sampler comparison exer ...

Freshwater Flux and Spatiotemporal Simulated Runoff Variability into Ilulissat Icefjord, West Greenland, Linked to Salinity and Temperature Observations near Tidewater Glacier Margins Obtained Using Instrumented Ringed Seals

Konrad Steffen

The distribution of terrestrial surface runoff to Ilulissat Icefjord, west Greenland, is simulated for the period 2009-13 to better emphasize the spatiotemporal variability in freshwater flux and the link between runoff spikes and observed hydrographic con ...

Evaluating snow models with varying process representations for hydrological applications

Nander Wever, Tobias Jonas

Much effort has been invested in developing snow models over several decades, resulting in a wide variety of empirical and physically based snow models. For the most part, these models are built on similar principles. The greatest differences are found in ...
