Video Introduction:

The Laboratory of Hydraulics, Hydrology and Glaciology (VAW) conducts research and teaching in the fields of hydraulic engineering, river engineering and glaciology. These fundamental activities are complemented by advanced studies and services 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), revitalization of watercourses, dynamics of polar ice streams and glacier-climate interactions. https://vaw.ethz.ch/en/.
