Projekte

Auf dieser Seite finden Sie ausgewählte Projekte, die Mitarbeitende des Schweizerischen Erdbebendienstes (SED) federführend betreuen oder an denen sie in zentraler Rolle mitwirken. Es handelt sich nicht um eine abschliessende Aufstellung, sondern um eine Auswahl zentraler und umfangreicher Projekte.

Seismo@school

Die Grundlage dieses Projekts bildet das seismo@school Programm, das von der Universität Lausanne und der HES-SO Valais-Wallis in den letzten Jahren initiiert wurde und an dem sich bislang 22 Schulen in den Kantonen Wallis und Waadt beteiligen. Dank eines vom SNF finanzierten zweijährigen AGORA-Projekts mit dem Titel "Förderung des Erdbebenbewusstseins in der Schweiz" werden wir dieses Programm auf die ganze Schweiz ausweiten. ...

DemoUpStorage

The Swiss Energy Strategy foresees CO2 capture and underground storage, possibly abroad, among the necessary measures to reach the net zero target by 2050. ...

Detection, characterization and monitoring of instabilities with seismic technologies

In recent years, we have developed efficient geophysical and seismological measurement tools that enable the characterization of instabilities based on their vibrational behavior and are suitable ...

Opossum

The OPOSSUM project aims at the development and testing of accelerometers and acceleromter networks with the potential to outperform state of the art sensing technology. ...

DT-GEO

Catastrophic earthquakes, with their devastating and often unpredictable nature, can wreak havoc on socioeconomic stability. ...

Seismological research concerning Swiss nuclear installations

The forth phase of this project is split into 3 subtasks with the main goal to improve regional and local seismic hazard assessment in Switzerland; with particular focus to the sites of potential ...

Ground Motion Prediction Equations (GMPEs)

This is the 1st subproject of the “Seismological research concerning Swiss nuclear installations” project. This subproject aims to improve source-scaling and attenuation models and to develop methods for the prediction of strong ground motion in Switzerland both at the surface as well as at depth. ...

FEAR

Despite intensive research, scientists cannot predict exactly when and where the next major earthquake will occur. The ERC Synergy project "FEAR" aims at a better understanding of the physics of earthquake processes. ...

GHTnet

The Swiss Seismological Service at ETH Zurich (SED) is collaborating with the Federal Roads Office (FEDRO) to enhance seismic monitoring for the ...

BedrettoLab

The BedrettoLab is a unique research infrastructure run by ETH Zurich making it possible to take a close look at the Earth’s interior. It is located in the Swiss Alps 1.5 kilometres below the surface and in the middle of a 5.2 kilometres long tunnel. Equipped with the latest technology, the BedrettoLab offers ideal conditions to conduct experimental research focusing on the behaviour of the deep underground when accessing and stimulating it. Such access is required to advance scientific knowledge in various domains such as earthquake physics and predictability, geothermal energy, geobiology and technology developments. Currently, there are about 9 projects ongoing in the BedrettoLab. ETH Zurich studies, in close collaboration with national and international partners, techniques and procedures for a safe, efficient, and sustainable use of geothermal heat.
