LAKES: Past, present and future of alpine lakes
Institute of Earth Surface Dynamics
From Newsworthiness to News usefulness in Climate Change research. Current approaches for deciding what science is covered in the media portray only a narrow slice of climate change research and aren’t well suited for stoking climate action.
At night or during cold winter days, lake water cools faster near the shore than in the middle of the lake. This creates a current that connects the shallow shore region with the deeper part of the lake. An international team led by Eawag researchers, and with whom we were thrilled to collaborate, were able to show for the first time that this horizontal circulation transports gases such as oxygen and methane.
