General description of organisation

Driven by curiosity and responding to societal needs, the Weather and Climate Risks (WCR) Group at the Institute for Environmental Decisions in the Department of Environmental Systems Science at ETH Zurich engages in research and teaching on weather and climate risks. We bridge the gap between science and society through reflection, modelling, and engagement with stakeholders in order to support option appraisal and decision making. The WCR Group's research focusses on matching the supply and demand side of weather and climate information in order to improve the resilience of our societies in
