Laboratory of Hydraulics, Hydrology and Glaciology (VAW)
- Data Manager:
The Laboratory of Hydraulics, Hydrology and Glaciology (VAW) conducts research and teaching in the fields of river engineering, glaciology, hydraulic engineering and numerical modelling. Studies in the areas of hydraulic structures for energy production, irrigation and water supply, protection against natural hazards (flood protection, debris flow, glacial risks, impulse waves) and renaturation of watercourses are complemented by research and services in the areas of dynamics of polar ice streams and glaciers, as well as processes relating to glaciers and climate change.
