This year, the SISKA is of­fe­ring two pu­blic ex­cur­sions to the karst. On 21 May, go hi­king in the Areuse gorges on the oc­ca­sion of the Fête de la na­ture. On 14 June, walk from La Chaux-de-Fonds to the Doubs in col­la­bo­ra­tion with the PNR du Doubs.

Groupe E, in col­la­bo­ra­tion with the SISKA, is star­ting a pros­pec­ting phase for the de­ve­lop­ment of a hy­droe­lec­tric pro­ject in the Val-de-Tra­vers.

We would like to congra­tu­late Amir Se­da­ghat­kish, who pu­bli­cly de­fen­ded his the­sis last Fri­day. It marks the culmi­na­tion of four years' work co-su­per­vi­sed by the SISKA / Swiss Spe­leo­lo­gy and Kars­to­lo­gy Ins­ti­tute and the FAST La­bo­ra­to­ry. We wish you all the best for the fu­ture!

The SISKA, in col­la­bo­ra­tion with the Na­tu­ral Ha­zards Unit (UDN) of the Can­ton of Vaud, has de­ve­lo­ped a me­tho­do­lo­gy for clas­si­fying sin­khole sub­si­dence phe­no­me­na. For the full re­port: info(@)isska.ch
