Uni Graz and TU Graz use historical aerial photographs to study glacier retreat

The photographs taken by the US Air Force offer a unique opportunity to analyse the state of Austrian glaciers on a large scale after the end of the Second World War.

Markus Markl is a theoretical physicist at TU Graz working on nuclear fusion – a clean form of energy that we want to copy from the sun.
One topic, but a multiplicity of angles and perspectives.
Climate change is omnipresent.
And it is also having an impact on our cities.
Scientists at TU Graz are researching how urban
living spaces can respond to these changes.
For us, utilising solar energy often means generating electricity using photovoltaics. Sophisticated architectural modifications, however, make much more possible.
International researchers involving Graz University of Technology have used radar data to determine which glaciers in High Mountain Asia are growing or shrinking in which season. For parts of Central…
In 2040, electricity production from solar installations will often significantly exceed demand, especially at midday. Robert Schürhuber from the Institute of Electrical Power Systems at TU Graz…
In contrast to annual plants, perennial wheat offers a more diverse microbiome and has a significantly lower impact on soil and environment – as has just been proven by researchers at TU Graz’s…
Batteries undercut their theoretical capacity in practice, sometimes significantly. In a lithium iron phosphate cathode, researchers at TU Graz have now been able to observe exactly where the capacity…
Methanol, ammonia, and hydrogen are waiting in the wings to replace problematic heavy fuel oil in ship propulsion systems. In this interview Nicole Wermuth and Andreas Wimmer explain the differences…
For a long time, large engines only knew one operating condition: full load. Nowadays, though, they are used much more flexibly and can effectively balance fluctuating electricity production, in…
