From the Swiss Blue Community Eawag Aquatic Research Institute:
Climate change is already clearly noticeable in Swiss waters. Water temperatures have risen continuously in recent decades and runoff volumes have also changed. This is not only a problem for heat-sensitive aquatic organisms, but also for the use of rivers by us humans, such as for cooling. In a research project funded by the Federal Office for the Environment (FOEN), researchers from the aquatic research institute Eawag and the University of Basel have investigated what we can expect in the future and which Swiss rivers will be particularly affected by warming.
