What photography, glaciology, climate physics, and direct observation reveal about glaciers - explained factually, precisely, and understandably.
GLAMOS – Guardians of Swiss Glaciers
Glacier Monitoring in Switzerland (GLAMOS) is a key project for monitoring Swiss glaciers. Led by Professor Matthias Huss from ETH Zurich, it provides data to help us understand the impacts of climate change on glaciers.
Official Launch, Together for the Glaciers: A big thank you to everyone!
The official launch of the "Glaciers Today" project on Diavolezza in the Bernina region: A groundbreaking success!
Glaciers sweat too: Soot settles on them.
Recent wildfires, like the huge one in Canada and the one in Valais, Switzerland, also contribute to the increase of black carbon. These released soot particles can spread through the atmosphere and settle on glaciers.
Kicking off a ten-year journey: A look at the first week.
During our first week with Glaciers.Today, we experienced the Alpine glaciers in all their magic. Find out more about the exciting start of our project.
We're live for 10 years!
Today, Glaciers.Today marks a significant milestone. After years of preparation, our high-resolution cameras on Diavolezza are starting their work, delivering stunning images of glaciers – our planet's gigantic thermometers. We want to thank our partners Lunor, Diavolezza, and Avisec for their support on this important journey.
We're going live in July 2023!
The Glaciers.Today project, which has involved years of intensive work, is entering a new phase. In early July, the first two high-resolution cameras will be installed on Diavolezza.
