Winter is the low flow season. Data: BAFU Talk: Focus on lowest annual flow over 7 days (AM7). 3 Rhine@Basel: Time series 1870 - 2016 of lowest annual mean flow over 7 days (AM7) Low flows have increased over time. 3 distinct periods. Role of climate and human impact? Daten: BAFU 4 Role of climate AM7 and the correspondent climatic condition After 1950: Increase of warm and wet winters. Weingartner et al. (2006) 5 Human impact – Expansion of Hydro power In winter: Water from artifical storage lakes produces electricity and thus is running off. ! Substantial contribution to natural runoff with significant increase between 1950 and 1970 due to the expansion of storage volumes. (today: net volume 2 km3)! + 120 m3=s. 6 A statistical model puts the influences into perspective Adopted from Weingartner et al.

This paper presents an improvement of a one- environment, simultaneously reacting to external forces and dimensional lake hydrodynamic model (Simstrat) to char- acting on their surroundings. The complex hydrodynamic acterize the vertical thermal structure of deep lakes. Using processes occurring in stratified lakes are mainly governed physically based arguments, we refine the transfer of wind by the combination of surface heat flux and wind stress energy to basin-scale internal waves (BSIWs). We consider (Bouffard and Boegman, 2012). The former sets up a den- the properties of the basin, the characteristics of the wind sity stratification by warming the near-surface water, which time series and the stability of the water column to filter and floats on top of the cold deep water. -

Le Grand Oeuvre De Hanni Schwab
Article Le grand oeuvre de Hanni Schwab KAENEL, Gilbert Abstract L'archéologue cantonale fribourgeoise, Hanni Schwab (1922-2004) est tout d'abord enseignante avant d'être nommée en 1962 responsable des recherches archéologiques lors de la deuxième correction des eaux du Jura. Elle découvre deux sites de notoriété internationale: l'habitat de Châtillon-sur-Glâne et l'oppidum du Mont Vully. Professeur d'archéologie à l'Université de Fribourg, elle est l'auteur de plus de 170 publications. Reference KAENEL, Gilbert. Le grand oeuvre de Hanni Schwab.
