Call: nominations of master's, doctoral or postdoc work in High Altitude Research

Amy R. Macfarlane will be awarded the Prix de Quervain 2024 for her excellent and innovative doctoral dissertation at the ETH Zurich and the WSL Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research SLF. Her research serves as a base to reduce major uncertainties on sea ice modelling and to improve the quality of global climate models predictions. For this, she applied a wide variety of instruments to measure the microstructure of snow in high resolution directly in the Arctic for the first time.

Organised by the Swiss Commission of Oceanography and Limnology and the Oeschger Zentrum, at the University of Bern on 20 June 2024

International symposium at the University of Bern on 4 April 2024
