Wir engagieren und vorwiegend in der Erfassung, Analyse, Bewertung und Entwicklungsprognosen der Ressourcen des Waldes.
So far, various approaches have been developed.
In this project, funded by the Swiss Agency for Development Cooperation (SDC / DEZA), we propose to apply large scale hazard indication mapping algorithms to the Himalayan province of Uttarakhand. Our goal is to identify unstable rock/ice masses and perform thermo-mechanical simulations – at the large-scale – to predict the danger of rock/ice avalanches, such as the recent event in Chamoli.
All of these events hence have disastrous consequences for people and infrastructures
The WSL program Climate Change Impacts on Alpine Mass Movements (CCAMM) comprises projects covering a range of topics in natural hazards. Most investigations use models and thus require climate forcing data. The aim of this task is to provide meteorological forcings at the slope scale and in high temporal resolution.
In a series of past and current dissertations, the WRF and ARPS models have been

If you are interested in ants, I have the perfect project for you!
Sustainable Intensification of agriculture (SI) is advocated by both, scientists and policy makers, as a solution for the dilemma between the need to increase agricultural production and the need to reduce the environmental burden which intensification historically entailed.
What have been the main trajectories of agricultural intensification in Europe and

This project investigates different ways of visualizing the complex data collected at the Pfynwald research site.

Hyperparasitism, the fundamental relationship between two parasitic organisms typically provides the basis for biological control. We investigate the infection dynamics of a mycovirus, which acts as biological control agent of the introduced tree disease.
Mycoviruses that infect plant pathogenic fungi have the potential to be used as biocontrol
