We have a new team member! After her MSc uclouvain, Mathilde Bayens is starting a PhD in mountain #geomorphology, studying sediment flux & hillslope-to-river connectivity in partially glaciated catchments. She's already joined fieldwork at Otemma & Turtmann. Welcome Mathilde! 🤗

New paper published by Dr. Pascal E. Egli et al! Subglacial Channels, Climate Warming and Increasing Frequency of Alpine Glacier Snout Collapse 👇 wp.unil.ch/alpenv/2021/11… #glaciology #geophysics

Voici mes premiers commentaires sur les résultats de la #COP26 :

So happy to have joined this wonderful research group 🤩🏔

Back from my 1st week of #fieldwork on the #Otemma glacier to help M Jenkin for his ice drilling project ! Unforgettable and rich week with AlpWISE ⛺️ 🏔 ! And new flight experience with Air Zermatt AG ! 🚁

And last week time to download the first #data 🤞

Great picture of a big #fieldwork day in August. Time to collect data for a PhD student project at #Otemma ! 🤩 A very dynamic #proglacial environment #valais #bagnes

New paper out : Comparison of #calibration characteristics of different acoustic impact systems for measuring #bedload transport in #mountain streams by Rickenmann D., Ammann L., Nicollier T. , Boss S., Fritschi B., Antoniazza G. et al. World Surf League doi.org/10.5194/esurf-…

I look forward to seeing you there ! :)

Several new seismic stations with solar systems have been installed by Bayens Mathilde at #Arolla to study the activity of #proglacial moraines. #EnvironmentalSeismology #geophones

Impressive #proglacial moraine of the high #Arolla #glacier !
