    Weber, J., Y. Brugnara, and S. Brönnimann (2020) Two Meteorological Series from Herisau, 1821- 1844. In: Brönnimann, S. (Ed.) Swiss Early Instrumental Meteorological Series. Geographica Bernensia G96, p. 73–85, DOI: 10.4480/GB2020.G96.06. Two Meteorological Series from Herisau, 1821–1844 Jonas Weber, Yuri Brugnara, and Stefan Brönnimann* Oeschger Centre for Climate Change Research and Institute of Geography, University of Bern, Switzerland Abstract This article describes two meteorological series from Herisau, Appenzell, covering the period 1821 to 1844. The two series were taken by Johann Ludwig Merz (1821–1831) and Johann Jakob Nef (1822–1844). Due to the long overlap, the data can be quality checked and compared in detail. This article discusses the series and metadata and presents the results of the quality assessment. The main unknown factors of both series remain the exact measurement locations and hence the precise altitude of the barometer. Apart from that, the series are of generally high quality and can be used for further meteorological analyses. 1. Introduction While in many parts of Switzerland meteorological measurements already started in the 18th | downloaded: 7.10.2021 century (see Pfister et al., 2019, for an overview and inventory of all series), this is not the case for Appenzell and St. Gall. The first series from St. Gall dates back to 1812 (Hürzeler et al., 2020). The first meteorological measurements taken in the Cantons of Appenzell are two series from Herisau. They were taken by Johann Ludwig Merz from 1821 to 1831 and Johann Jakob Nef from 1822 to 1844. This paper provides information on the series, observers, instruments, and station histories.

  • Clarity on Swiss Taxes 2019
    Clarity on Swiss Taxes Playing to natural strengths 4 16 Corporate taxation Individual taxation Clarity on Swiss Taxes EDITORIAL Welcome Switzerland remains competitive on the global tax stage according to KPMG’s “Swiss Tax Report 2019”. This annual study analyzes corporate and individual tax rates in Switzerland and internationally, analyzing data to draw comparisons between locations. After a long and drawn-out reform process, the Swiss Federal Act on Tax Reform and AHV Financing (TRAF) is reaching the final stages of maturity. Some cantons have already responded by adjusting their corporate tax rates, and others are sure to follow in 2019 and 2020. These steps towards lower tax rates confirm that the Swiss cantons are committed to competitive taxation. This will be welcomed by companies as they seek stability amid the turbulence of global protectionist trends, like tariffs, Brexit and digital service tax. It’s not just in Switzerland that tax laws are being revised. The national reforms of recent years are part of a global shift towards international harmonization but also increased legislation. For tax departments, these regulatory developments mean increased pressure. Their challenge is to safeguard compliance, while also managing the risk of double or over-taxation. In our fast-paced world, data-driven technology and digital enablers will play an increasingly important role in achieving these aims. Peter Uebelhart Head of Tax & Legal, KPMG Switzerland Going forward, it’s important that Switzerland continues to play to its natural strengths to remain an attractive business location and global trading partner. That means creating certainty by finalizing the corporate tax reform, building further on its network of FTAs, delivering its “open for business” message and pressing ahead with the Digital Switzerland strategy.
