The environment is a space that surrounds, encloses, encircles. The object is a thing that limits a place and a point of view. To think of architecture as an “environmental object” means to question this dynamic of separation and imagine a discipline that ...
The great success of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and its successor Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) has accelerated the development of global high-resolution satellite-based precipitation products (SPP). However, the quantitative a ...
Predicting responses of plankton to variations in essential nutrients is hampered by limited in situ measurements, a poor understanding of community composition, and the lack of reference gene catalogs for key taxa. Iron is a key driver of plankton dynamic ...
Crustose coralline algae (CCA) are key organisms in coral reef ecosystems, where they contribute to reef building and substrate stabilization. While ocean acidification due to increasing CO2 can affect the biology, physiology and ecology of fully developed ...
The link between stratiform precipitation microphysics and multifrequency radar observables is thoroughly investigated by exploiting simultaneous airborne radar and in situ observations collected from two aircraft during the OLYMPEX/RADEX (Olympic Mountain ...
Nowadays, Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS) is mainly used in forensic sciences but suffers from limitations when the analysed compounds are thermally instable as it is the case for THC-A (Tetrahydrocannabinolic Acid) which is converted into Del ...
There are many reasons why the scientific community has a hard time agreeing on a specific greenhouse gas mitigation path and it is easy to raise arguments for waiting. However, there is no more time for procrastination. The talk shows mitigation measures ...
Glaciers calving ice into the ocean is predicted to significantly contribute to sea-level rise and will thus influence future climate. Although numerous factors that induce glacier calving have been identified and studied, it is still extremely challenging ...
This presentation draws from the IPCC's special report on the impacts of global warming of 1.5° the new global carbon budget and what it implies in terms of CO2-mitigation pathways. It then compares Switzerland's past mitigation performance with these impl ...
