Warm welcome to our two new PhD Students and goodbye to Jérôme Kopp
Welcome to our two new PhD students, Firdewsa and Margaret. Firdewas is joining us after completing her Master's degree at ETH Zurich. She will work on the project's impact-based warnings of surface water floods with the Mobiliar Lab for Natural Risks. Conversely, Margaret joins us after completing her Master's degree in applied statistics at Memorial University of Newfoundland, Canada. Her focus is combining indirect hail information from rada, lightning data, hail reports from the public, and data from hail sensors. Her goal is to create a posteriori hail footprint map and visualize the results so they are interpretable for stakeholders.
Furthermore, Jérôme Kopp passed his Devense and is leaving us for a position as Project Manager Wind & Ice at Meteotest AG. All the best, Jérôme!
