LAKES: Past, present and future of alpine lakes

The excellent ReProjecting Science had its November’s session on Quagga mussels’ colonization in Lakes, with the projection of the documentary ‘All too Clear : Beneath the surface of Great Lakes” (Inspired Planet Production) and a round-table with Dr Linda Haltiner (specialist in Quagga’s Ecology), Alexis Pochelon (ASL), Alexandra Hauret (Service des Eaux de Lausanne), Caroel Fonty (Alien Limited), hosted by Tomy and chaired by Marie Perga. A super-well attended session (over 120 people), and incredible organization (Thank you the Reprojecting Science team).

We have open positions (isotope specialist, Master’s internship, assistantship) within the quagga muffin project. Applications in December 2025 and January 2026. Check here.

Intersted in working on lakes physics or biogeochemistry. Available topics here.

Not one but two new papers on the drivers of planktonic communities in high-altitude lakes! Wonderful works led by Rocco Tiberti and Flavia Dory. Chech here.

Our final paper from CARBOGEN “Calcite precipitation: the forgotten piece of lakes’carbon cycle” ties it all together…. how to link calcite precipitation and lake CO2 emissions. What a journey, what a pleasure to finally get to the bottom of it. The paper comes with a great introduction by Jack Middelburg “Closing the inland water carbon cycle”.
