Objective The study was undertaken to show the magnitude of interindividual differences in energy expenditure (i.e., heat production) under normal living conditions with the aim of providing physiological evidence to support the advancement of a personaliz ...
Energy piles represent an innovative technology that can help provide sustainable geothermal heating or cooling energy for thermal conditioning purposes. In hot-dominated climates, the interest is to inject heat in the ground and extract energy for space-c ...
Long-term changes in precipitation and temperature indirectly impact aquifers through groundwater recharge (GWR). Although estimates of future GWR are needed for water resource management, they are uncertain in cold and humid climates due to the wide range ...
A round felt yurt is a traditional dwelling of Central Asian nomads that have survived over 2000 years. The structure and the use of the yurt have not changed over the centuries, making it a nomadic civilization's masterpiece. It has not lost its relevance ...
Groundwater recharge (GWR) is a strategic hydrologic variable, and its estimate is necessary to implement sustainable groundwater management. This is especially true in a global warming context that highly impacts key winter conditions in cold and humid cl ...
Le site choisi est celui du village du Bouveret, situé dans la plaine du delta du Rhône chablaisien suisse. Ce lieu est caractérisé principalement par son isolement: d'une part par sa situation au sein d'un territoire lui-même isolé, le Chablais suisse, d' ...

In the last decade there has been a growing interest from the hydrometeorological community regarding rainfall estimation from commercial microwave link (CML) networks. Path-averaged rainfall intensities can be retrieved from the signal attenuation between ...
Sunlight, temperature, and microbial grazing are among the environmental factors promoting the inactivation of viral pathogens in surface waters. Globally, these factors vary across time and space. The persistence of viral pathogens, and ultimately their e ...
Based on the analyses of data from two distinct measurement campaigns conducted in residential indoor environments in Japan and Switzerland, we identify the specificities of occupants' behaviour with respect to their interactions with windows, including th ...
