Projects

An integrated project that aimed to develop a generally applicable framework for the mitigation of geogenic contamination in groundwater used for drinking, in particular concerning arsenic and fluoride.

Water Resource Quality
WABES explores opportunities for integrated planning, implementation and sustainability of water, solid waste and fecal sludge service provision in urban settings.

WABES
ReCLEAN examines the effects of energy decarbonization on the nitrogen balance within Swiss ecosystems. It will serve as a crucial foundation for developing sustainable policies in Switzerland.

ReCLEAN
This project facilitates the exchange of data, maps and information on geogenic contaminants (focussing on arsenic and fluoride) via the web-based Groundwater Assessment Platform (GAP)

Groundwater Assessment Platform (GAP)
This project uses machine learning to model spatial and temporal occurrence of nitrate in groundwater

Nationwide prediction of nitrate in groundwater
Evaluating spatial patterns of soil arsenic and micronutrients to strengthen environmental risk assessment and guide sustainable agricultural planning.

Risk mapping of arsenic and trace elements
Nationale Daueruntersuchung der Stofffrachten in schweizerischen Fliessgewässern (NAWA-Fracht)

NAWA-Fracht: Daueruntersuchung der Flüsse
Water Resource Quality (WRQ) was an integrated project running from 2006-2012 at Eawag that aimed to develop a generally applicable framework for the mitigation of geogenic contamination in groundwater used for drinking.
