Today is the day:

Launch of the new #BSc #biodiversity degree program @ University of Zurich!

https://biodiversitaet.uzh.ch/de.html

Only degree program in🇨🇭🇩🇪🇦🇹 with focus on organismal biodiversity, preparing students for academic research & practice, incl. interdisciplinary skills such as #EnvironmentalPolicy, #Ethics, #EnvironmentalPsychology

After 2+ years of preparation, we welcomed today >160 students (80 Major/80 Minor) at the Irchel campus. Many thanks to all who are involved & provide teaching.

We had a very fun and diverse field day searching for subterranean #amphipods in the area of #Basel, #Switzerland. It included caving as well as interstitial sampling. Research done at @florian_altermatt lab #Eawag #UniversityOfZurich

Jetzt zum #Studium einschreiben!

Der neue #BSc/#MSc Studiengang "#Biodiversität" an der @UZH_ch
ist offen und Interessierte können sich für HS23 einschreiben.

Biodiversität

Typ: Mono, Major, Minor / Bereich: Naturwissenschaften / Sprache: deutsch, englisch

Im 🇨🇭#Grundwasser lebt eine Vielzahl noch unbekannter Lebewesen, u.a. #Flohkrebse der Gattung #Niphargus.

Unser Forschungsprojekt #Eawag bringt Licht ins Dunkel & findet einzigartige #Biodiversität.

Out now: A spatial fingerprint of land-water linkage of #biodiversity uncovered by #RemoteSensing and #eDNA by Zhang et al.

–> Characteristic spatial scale of biodiversity-linkage across #terrestrial 🌲& #aquatic 🌊systems:

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0048969722084698?via%3Dihub

We find spatial association of riverine eDNA diversity \w RS spectral diversity of terrestrial ecosystems upstream, peaking at a 400–2000 m distance. Such spatially explicit information allows functional understanding of land-water linkages.
