EyeWatch Rescue of Refractory Hypotony After Baerveldt Drainage Device Implantation: Description of a New Technique

André Mermoud, Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Adan Villamarin, Sina Elahi

The most effective way to control glaucoma is by lowering intraocular pressure (IOP) in order to prevent the progression of the disease. Glaucoma drainage devices (GDDs) are surgical option reserved for refractory cases and have been designed to address kn ...

Impacts of irrigation with industrial treated wastewater on soil properties

André Mermoud, Pascal Boivin

Wastewater reuse in agriculture is a widespread practice in developing countries, especially in urban areas where water shortage and poverty encourage people to use that marginal resource. Raw or treated wastewaters are used by farmers, but even treated wa ...

A robust framework for probabilistic precipitations downscaling from an ensemble of climate predictions applied to Switzerland

André Mermoud, Bettina Schaefli, Xavier Beuchat

Rainfall is poorly modeled by general circulation models (GCMs) and requires appropriate downscaling for local-scale hydrological impact studies. Such downscaling methods should be robust and accurate (to handle, e.g., extreme events and uncertainties), bu ...
