Golene sotto pressione: le attuali aree protette non sono sufficienti
I ricercatori del WSL hanno studiato dove vivranno in futuro le specie golenali: per preservarle è necessaria una adeguata pianificazione.
Le #golene sono ricche di specie e a rischio. Poiché le condizioni climatiche stanno cambiando, le odierne zone protette non saranno più sufficienti. Il WSL mostra cosa occorre affinché specie rare possano trovare habitat adatti a loro. www.wsl.ch/it/news/gole...

Les zones alluviales sous pression : les zones protégées actuelles sont insuffisantes
Une étude du WSL montre que les espèces alluviales ne survivront qu’avec une planification adaptée.
Les #ZonesAlluviales sont riches en espèces et menacées. Face à l’évolution des conditions climatiques, les zones protégées ne suffiront plus. Une étude du WSL montre les mesures à prendre pour continuer à accueillir des espèces rares. www.wsl.ch/fr/news/les-...

Floodplains under pressure: today’s protected areas are not enough
WSL researchers have investigated where floodplain species will survive in the future. The conclusion: planning needs to be adapted.
#Floodplains are species-rich and endangered. With changing climate conditions, today's protected areas are not enough. A WSL study shows what rare species such as the Little ringed plover and the German tamarisk need to find a home. www.wsl.ch/en/news/floo...

Auen unter Druck: bisherige Schutzgebiete genügen nicht
WSL-Forschende haben untersucht, wo Auenarten in Zukunft überleben können. Das Fazit: für ihren Erhalt braucht es eine angepasste Planung.
#Auen sind artenreich und gefährdet. Heutige #Schutzgebiete werden aber nicht mehr genügen. Eine Studie der WSL zeigt, was seltene Arten wie der Flussregenpfeifer oder Deutsche Tamariske brauchen, um ein Zuhause finden. www.wsl.ch/de/news/auen...

At UNIS they studied Svalbard’s glaciology & lower Arctic atmosphere, glaciers, sea ice & permafrost just minutes from the classroom.
We’re grateful for this access to the High Arctic. In their words: “We leave with many fantastic memories & new friendships.”

Life on Svalbard, in the northernmost town in the world.
Two of our team members, PhD student Janosch Beer and master student Valentin Künzler, spent 2 months at 78°N, from polar night, when the sun never rises, into the first light of the Arctic dawn in February.

Rocky, mostly dry riverbed in a forested mountain gorge with overlaid text asking how much hydroelectric potential is lost to residual flow requirements.
A research team from @wslresearch.bsky.social, #unibern and @eawag.bsky.social shows: The additional #reducedproduction due to residual water is likely to be significantly lower than feared from today in 2050. mediarelations.unibe.ch/media_releas...

Waldbrände im Klimawandel: Ist die Schweiz vorbereitet? 🔥🌲
Lange galt die Schweiz als Land mit geringem Waldbrandrisiko. Doch vermehrt und länger andauernde Trockenperioden, weniger Schnee sowie die veränderte Landnutzung erhöhen das Waldbrandrisiko.

Stradivari: violini straordinari grazie agli abeti delle Alpi
Uno studio internazionale sugli anelli annuali dimostra dove Stradivari trovava il legno per i suoi violini e come lo utilizzava.
Uno studio internazionale rivela che #Stradivari si riforniva principalmente di legno proveniente dall'Alto Adige. Gli scienziati, tra cui Paolo Cherubini, hanno analizzato 314 serie cronologiche provenienti da 284 violini autentici. www.wsl.ch/it/news/qual... #dendrocronologia #violino
