📢 Join the WaldLab Ecohydrology Team! We are looking for a motivated doctoral student to work on the effects of forest management on water quality 🌲 💧 🌳 💧 -> more details about the position: jobs.ethz.ch/job/view/JOP... -> more details about our research: hyd.ifu.ethz.ch/ecohydlab/wa...

Diving deep into Singapore's water cycle! 💦 From urbanized areas to tropical forests, we've set up experimental catchments across Singapore with friends @ NUS to unravel the hydrological response of these diverse landscapes (incl. water retention in tropical litter layers & isotope sampling)

Last month I got the chance to explain our exciting Waldlabor research in the @revolve.media "Everything is Changing" Podcast -> open.spotify.com/episode/5PtW... (Picture credit: Alessandro Della Bella)

The last weeks we spent preparing the AWS for our @cryoscope.bsky.social field campaigns in Ladakh - apologies to my office mates for the mess 🙃 Everything is working & the shipment arrived in India. We are excited to start our field campaign soon, stay tuned for updates! @harshberia.bsky.social

Why do trees preferably transpire winter precipitation? 🌳💦 In our latest commentary we argue that it's not a big surprise but the effect of seasonal differences in soil recharge. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/... @canopyinclouds.bsky.social @harshberia.bsky.social @scottallenunr.bsky.social

To what extent do beech 🌳 and spruce 🌲 trees shift their water uptake to deeper layers in dry periods? Can deep roots alone sustain full tree transpiration? Find out out more in Stefanos excellent PhD paper in Tree Physiology, based on root measurements @waldlabor -> doi.org/10.1093/tree...

How much of groundwater seepage & mixing occur around main-river knickpoints? We conducted extensive synoptic sampling, mixing & groundwater modelling to learn more about this in our recent #AGU #GRL publication! So happy to see this paper out: agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/... 🥳

How much of streamflow in Swiss & Austrian Alpine rivers is younger than 1 month? How is this related to catchment characteristics & hydro-climatical variables? We answered these questions in our recent @eurogeosciences.bsky.social publication together with BOKU hess.copernicus.org/articles/28/...

Spent a hot & humid week for fieldwork, discussions and a seminar at NUS Singapore. Great start of our project on runoff generation processes & the role of different vegetation types in tropic urban & semi-urban environments (with Simone Fatichi & his awesome team! 😍)

Last week we had the pleasure to host an international group of students Waldlabor Zürich for the 1st edition of the @ethzurich.bsky.social & EPFL Ecohydrology Summer School! Such an amazing group of people, I really enjoyed showing you around & introduce our latest results and sampling efforts!

Thanks to an @ethzurich.bsky.social Innovedum Fund we were able to update our hydraulic lab equipment -> hands-on weir experiments in mini-flumes, a pipe airflow kit & implement data evaluation in Jupyter Notebooks! A huge effort of all staff involved, but totally worth it! 🌊😍 #teaching

This week another exciting field measurement class took place at Waldlabor. Our friends from Uni Zurich Ilja van Meerveld & @jansei.bsky.social invited their students to learn about the forest water cycle during challenging but hydrologically interesting weather conditions! 💦☔️

it was a pleasure to present these findings @eurogeosciences.bsky.social last week!

Happy to share that our litter & deadwood study 🍂💦🍂from WaldLab made it to the list of top downloaded Ecohydrology papers! 🥳 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

By how much do throughfall & stemflow differ isotopically from incoming precipitation across seasons? New "WaldLab" publication out in HP showing (relatively small) offsets in forest precipitation isotopes: onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....

Happy to share that we will host a 4-day ETH & EPFL summer school for PhD and MSc students this June (18. - 21.06.) at our "Waldlabor" field site! Apply until April 1st! More information: hyd.ifu.ethz.ch/education/Ec...
