Due to the scarcity of reliable and highly resolved moisture proxies covering much of the Holocene, there has been increased interest in the study of living and subfossil peatland trees sensitive to gradual and extreme changes in hydrology, precipitation, ...
Climate change is clearly discernible in observed climate records in Switzerland. It impacts on natural systems, ecosystems, and economic sectors such as agriculture, tourism, and energy, and it affects Swiss livelihood in various ways. The observed and pr ...
Many applications in the evaluation of climate impacts and environmental policy require detailed spatio-temporal projections of future climate. To capture feedbacks from impacted natural or socio-economic systems requires interactive two-way coupling, but ...
High atm. CO2 levels, resulting largely from combustion of fossil fuels, and its undesirable impact on global climate has sparked considerable interest in cleaner energy sources. While energy transitions are historically slow, technol. solns. for mitigatio ...
The data to reproduce results from the paper " Multi-scale modelling to evaluate building energy consumption at the neighbourhood scale " with DOI : 10.1371/journal.pone.0183437 can be found in this repository. We provide the useful data to rerun the CityS ...
Evaluating the usefulness and the reliability of retrofitted buildings for future climate can be a challenging task, while different scenarios and uncertainties exist both for retrofitting buildings and future climate. This paper presents a method to asses ...
Changes in the polar regions have large influences on the global climate, on ecosystems and on societies worldwide. More than 2000 scientists and decision makers are convening in Davos this week to discuss the latest research from the Arctic, from the Anta ...
Evaluating the usefulness and the reliability of retrofitted buildings for future climate can be a challenging task, while different scenarios and uncertainties exist both for retrofitting buildings and future climate. This paper presents a method to asses ...
Snow distribution in complex alpine terrain and its evolution in the future climate is important in a variety of applications including hydropower, avalanche forecasting and freshwater resources. However, it is still challenging to quantitatively forecast ...
Hydropower is a key energy source in almost all world regions. It fuels social and economic development, ensures electricity security, and is a pillar for renewable electricity production. But hydropower and its environmental impacts are vulnerable to clim ...
