معرفی
Dr. Mauro Werder is a Lecturer at the Department of Civil, Environmental and Geomatic Engineering at ETH Zurich. His work focuses on glaciology, subglacial hydrology, and numerical modeling, combining computational methods with field measurements. He has developed widely used models such as GlaDS (Glacier Drainage System) and BITE (Bayesian Ice Thickness Estimation), and contributed to projects like SHMIP and 4D-Antarctica.
- Current Projects: Gladder (2025-2028), DIWING (2023-2026), LEAD (2020-2026), 4D-Antarctica (2019-2022), CORDS (2023-2024)
- Education: PhD in Glaciology (2009, Swiss National Science Foundation funded)
His research spans subglacial drainage systems, sediment transport (SUGSET model), Bayesian inversion techniques, and field experiments involving artificial lakes and R-channels. He actively teaches courses on GPU-based PDE solving, applied glaciology, and reproducible scientific computing.
Scientific Awards:
- Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF) Fellowship for Prospective Researchers (2010-2011)
- European Union (FP7) Marie Curie International Outgoing Fellowship (2011-2014)
He collaborates with institutions like the Swiss Federal Institute for Forest, Snow and Landscape Research (WSL), and contributes to software development through packages like BITEmodel.jl and Parameters.jl. His fieldwork includes experiments on Greenland's Jakobshavn Isbræ and Switzerland's Plaine Morte glacier.
