EPFL scientists have studied two mechanisms that can help bring oxygen to the depths of a lake – essential for preserving the lake’s ecosystem. The classical deepwater renewal caused by surface cooling during winter is becoming less efficient due to climate change, especially in deep lakes. ENAC Ecological Engineering Laboratory. Rafael Reiss and his field equipment by Lake Geneva.
