Scientific partnerships Due to the contacts built during BigLink, there has been a number of new collaborations on a bilateral basis that have developed among the researchers involved in BigLink. These have led to joint research projects outside the scope of BigLink. External collaborations: S. Bernasconi is a Co-PI of the EU-FP7 large scale integrating Project SoilTrec: Soil transformation in European Catch- ments. The Damma Glacier forefield, thanks to the infrastructure built with BigLink has become a “Critical Zone Observa- tory” (CZO), as one of the 4 EU CZO’s of SoilTrec. Research at the Damma glacier is continuing in collaboration with 15 European partners and one partner from China. Through SoilTrec we are an official partner of the National Critical Zone Observatory Program (CZO) funded by the Geoscience Directorate of NSF with at present 6 CZO’s funded in the USA. We have started collaborations and exchange of Post docs and students with various members of the NSF Critcal zone Network specifically with Sue Brantley and Chris Duffy (Penn. State); Suzanne Anderson (University of Boulder Colorado. S. Bernasconi is involved in a joint project on Tracing nitrogen transformation in forest soils at the river Thur, with E. Graf-Pannatier and J. Luster within the CCES project RECORD project was started 1.5 years ago, funded by the COST action 869.

Scientific partnerships A highlight is cooperation within the SwissExperiment project regarding integration of sensor networks, and the cooperation with the project GeoVITe regarding the development of the COGEAR GIS Platform. A working group for geomagnetics and geochemistry with a number of interested institutions has been established, among these the University of Neuchâtel with broad experience in these fields. Several workshops and meetings took place during the last 2 years. The partners shared their expertise, provided first recommendations concerning instrumentation and recommended possible test sites.

100 In Chile a database related to earthquake-triggered rockslides is developed. Such database cannot be derived for Swit- zerland due to the scarcity of large earthquakes, but the rockslide and earthquake properties can be transferred to the Alps. Key partners are the Universidad de Chile (Santiago), the Geological Survey of Chile (Santiago), the Geological Survey of Norway (Trondheim) and the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute (NGI, Oslo). The test site to be established in Visp is located in an area of moderate seismicity and supplements to long-term field sites in areas of high seismicity (e.g. Wildlife site in California). Close cooperation with the institutions (e.g. UC Davis, RPI, Troy, both USA) is envised. The Swisstopo and GGL co-operation on deformation analysis and GPS measurements for tectonics intensified. GPS- Data of already running stations is processed also by Swisstopo. COGEAR interacts with other national and international projects such as EU-projects NERIES (Network of Research Infrastructures for European Seismology) and SHARE (Seismic Hazard Harmonization in Europe), and the global public/private partnership project GEM (Global Earthquake Model). NERIES in sub-project JRA4 and the developement on site-characterization techniques in COGEAR used the synergies to develop new low-cost methods to analyse local ground conditions. The technical solution blueprints for spatial data keeping and mapping applications (both server- and client-side) for GEM and SHARE base on the experience of the COGEAR project.

PHIVOLCS (Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology) Science and Technology Forum. Manila, July 3rd 2009. Geotechnische Herausforderungen im voralpinem (und alpinem) Raum am Beispiel der Schweiz. Seminar Geotechnik in Theorie und Praxis an der Universität Kassel. 2.11.2009. General Assembly of Swiss Society for Earthquake Engineering and Structural Dynamics (SGEB), Visp June 4, 2010 where local community authorities and the canton participated EGREGIS Network 2010 meeting at the ETH Zurich Workshop "Earthquakes in Alpine Regions – Seismik Risk” during the ISCAR conference, Munich 6.-9. October, 2010.

Public information events for local and regional authorties, and for residents “Living with risk – how to build new form of expertise”, EPFL-ENAC faculty research day 2008. Exhibition ‘Das Wallis bebt’, Oberwalliser Gewerbeausstellung OGA, Brig, 29. August – 06. September 2008. SED public information events:

 Earthquake Simulator opening, 24 January 2009, ETH Zurich. On the occasion of the public opening of the ‘earthquake simulator’, installed in the NO building of ETH Zurich as long-term loan from the Swiss Federal Office of the Environment FOEN/BAFU, an open house with approximately 1500 visitors and extensive media coverage was organized in cooperation between SED and focusTerra. In addition to “experiencing earthquakes” in the simulator activities included seismic experiments for children and talks on seismicity and seismic hazard in Switzerland and on earthquake risk mitigation.  Project COGEAR and the expected next M6 event in the Valais are featured in overview presentations to groups visiting the SED, the focusTerra exhibition and / or the earthquake simulator (approximately 20 events since Janu- ary 2009).

At the “Treffpunkt Science City” at the campus Hönggerberg on March 22nd 2010 under the title “Unruhige Erde”, an experiment using a shaking table has been offered and witnessed by approximately 150 visitors to demonstrate the dif- ference in non-linear behaviour of gravel, sand, silt and clay.

Events and activities (courses) organized at schools ‘Seismo-at-School’ (www.seismoatschool.ethz.ch). In January 2009 one of the first ‘school-seismographs’ in Switzerland was installed at the Colleges de Creusets, Sion (station ESION). The installation was accompanied by an education

101 program for teachers. In addition, educational materials for students (brochures) were developed, in cooperation with the EU Alcotra- Interreg project on environmental education O3E (o3e.geoazur.eu). Contribution to the Exhibition “ETH Unterwegs” by IGT. IGT developed an experiment to visualize non linear effects in saturated sand. The experiment is regularly used in this exhibition from the Department of Civil, environmental and geo- matic engineering (D-BAUG). This exhibition is run from November 2009 – March 2010 visiting in average 10 schools per year. Events and activities (courses) organized for schools have been organised by IGT, where pupils can visit the soil laboratory. For the regular event of the “Töchtertag” the same experiment as described is in use.

Scientific events organized by project partners

Conferences, workshops, open for audience beyond CCES partners GSN Workshop 2010 was organised by SwissEx in Davos. Presentations are on http://www.swiss-experiment.ch The session “Restored River Corridor Dynamics: experiments, observations and modelling river restoration” was organized by RECORD scientists at the EGU General Assembly, Vienna, Austria, 02 – 07 May 2010, including a total of 7 oral and 18 poster presentations on the RECORD project. RECORD researchers of Eawag were hosting the Groundwater Quality (GQ) conference series under the theme: “GQ2010 Groundwater Quality Management in a Rapidly Changing World Zurich Switzerland, June 13 - 18, 2010”. Dur- ing GQ10, an exciting program of 83 oral and 96 poster presentations was arranged. The Technical Tour of GQ10 included the visit of the RECORD site at Niederneunforn.
