How micromobility affects the climate
Research
ETH Zurich
Shared e-scooters and e-bikes transport the image of a climate-friendly mobility solution. ETH researchers have now shown that shared micromobility solutions in Zurich emit more CO2 emissions than the alternatives they replace.
Swaying mountains
Research
ETH Zurich WSL
Like bridges and tall buildings, large mountains are constantly vibrating, excited by seismic energy form the Earth. An international team of researchers has now been able to measure the resonant swaying of the Matterhorn and make its motion visible using computer simulations.
Gazing deep into the universe
Research
ETH Zurich
The launch of the James Webb Space Telescope is set to take place in the coming days. For ETH Zurich physicist Adrian Glauser, who was involved in two unspectacular but vital contributions to this ambitious project, it will bring to an end a long period of anxious anticipation.
“Oceans are one of the main driving forces of the Earth’s climate”
Research
ETH Zurich
Núria Casacuberta Arola studies water circulation using radionuclides to understand the role of the oceans in mitigating climate change.
Compost for Kenya
Teaching
ETH Zurich
Manuel Mathis is doing an internship at a composting plant in Nairobi as part of his Master’s degree programme. He is now in charge of a 20-strong team of workers – and, thanks to his improvements, the business is back in profit.
Improving quality through artificial intelligence
Research
ETH Zurich
ETH researchers are using artificial intelligence to improve quality management in digital production processes. The team has succeeded in halving the proportion of defective products in an experiment with the semiconductor manufacturer Hitachi Energy.
