Daily discharge and the related hydro-meteorological variables precipitation, snowmelt, and soil moisture are provided for current (1981-2017) and for future climate conditions (1981-2100) for 307 medium-sized catchments in Switzerland. The catchments have a median catchment area of 117 km². The 307 catchments together form a set representative of the climatological conditions and runoff characteristics in Switzerland. The four variables were simulated at a daily resolution using the hydrological model PREVAH. PREVAH is a conceptual process-based model that was run in this study in its fully distributed version on a 500 m grid (Viviroli et al. 2009a). For the calibration, runoff time series from 140 mesoscale catchments covering the different runoff regimes were used. The model calibration was conducted over the period 1993-1997. Verification was performed on the period 1983-2005 using (i) volumetric deviation (Viviroli et al. 2007) and (ii) benchmark efficiency (Schäfli et al 2007) as objective functions. The calibration and validation procedures are described in detail in Köplin et al. (2010). The parameters for each model grid cell were derived by regionalizing the parameters obtained for the 140 catchments with a procedure based on ordinary kriging (Viviroli et al. 2009b, Köplin et al. 2010).
The calibrated and validated model was then driven with transient meteorological data (precipitation, temperature, radiation, and wind) representing both reference (1981-2017) and future climate conditions (2018-2099). The data were derived from the CH2018 climate scenarios (NCCS 2018) provided by the Swiss National Centre for Climate Services (NCCS). They were obtained from climate experiments produced with different climate modeling chains, consisting of a global and a regional circulation model each, within EUROCORDEX  for three representative concentration pathways (RCP) emission scenarios. Downscaled output of ten climate model chains derived by quantile mapping were considered. The focus was on the chains of the EUR-11 domain with a horizontal resolution of 0.11 degrees (roughly 12.5 km). The climate model chains (GCM, RCM, RCP, and grid resolution) used are listed below:

snow-depth-mapping

en:
The available datasets are snow depth maps with a spatial resolution of 2m generated from image matching of ADS 80/100 data. Image acquisition took place at peak of winter (time when the thickest snowpack is expected). The snow depth maps are the difference of a summer DSM from the winter DSM of the corresponding date . The summer DSM used is a product of image matching of ADS 80 data from summer 2013. In the available products buildings, vegetation and outliers were masked (set to NoData).
For the elimination of buildings the TLM layer (swisstopo) was used, because this layer might not represent exactly the
state of infrastructure at time of image acquisition, it is possible that mainly in dense settlement some buildings were not successfully masked. For the relevant area above treeline the masking of buildings showed good results. Vegetation got masked for a height above ground - 1m and was detected in a combination of summer and winter data sets. As Outliers were considered unrealistic snow depths caused by a failure of the image matching algorithm. Snow depths - 15m and smaller than - -15m were classified as outliers. Negative snow depth were kept, because of an uncertainty in image orientation accuracy. It is expected that in regions with negative snow depth also positive snow depth are underestimated by the same amount, which means that an estimation of snow volume should be carried out summing up the absolute values of snow depth (also the negative ones). For volume estimation in small regions the user has to take into account, that orientation accuracy of the images is roughly around 1-2 GSD (30cm), which propagates directly to the snow depth product. Areas which are not covered by snow got assigned a value of 0 as snow depth.

 Manuscript Abstract:
Despite being the main sediment entrainment mechanism in aeolian transport, granular splash is still poorly understood. We provide a deeper insight into the dynamics of sand and snow ejection with a stochastic model derived from the energy and momentum conservation laws. Our analysis highlights that the ejection regime of uniform sand is inherently different from that of heterogeneous sand. Moreover, we show that cohesive snow presents a mixed ejection regime, statistically controlled either by energy or momentum conservation depending on the impact velocity. The proposed formulation can provide a solid base for granular splash simulations in saltation models, leading to more reliable assessments of aeolian transport on Earth and Mars.

Throughfall, litterflow and soil solution were sampled during one whole year under five Oriental beech trees in a mixed Hyrcanian beech forest. The amounts of Ca2+, Mg2+, K+ and Na+ in these fluxes were calculated based on their concentrations and the sampled volumes, and subsequently compared with the respective fluxes in the rainfall and soil solution of an adjacent forest gap.
In addition six soil profiles, one close to every single tree and one in the forest gap, were analyzed for pH, CaCO3, organic matter and texture.

Cable-based technologies have been a backbone for harvesting on steep slopes. The layout of a single cable road is challenging because one must identify intermediate support locations and heights that guarantee structural safety and operational efficiency while minimizing set-up and dismantling costs. Seilaplan optimizes the layout of a cable road by
Seilaplan stands for Cable Road Layout Planner. Seilaplan is able to calculate the optimal rope line layout (position and height of the supports) between defined start and end coordinates on the basis of a digital elevation model (DEM).
The program is designed for Central European conditions and is designed on the basis of a fixed suspension rope anchored at both ends. For the calculation of the properties of the load path curve an iterative method is used, which was described by Zweifel (1960) and was developed especially for standing skylines. When testing the feasibility of the cable line, care is taken that 1) the maximum permissible stresses in the skyline are not exceeded, 2) there is a minimum distance between the load path and the ground and 3) when using a gravitational system, there is a minimum inclination in the load path. The solution is selected which has a minimum number of supports in the first priority and minimizes the support height in the second priority.
The newly developed method calculates the load path curve and the forces occurring in it more accurately than tools available on the market to date (status 2019) and is able to determine the optimum position and height of the intermediate supports.
The reason for the more accurate results of the new tool is the assumption that the skyline is anchored at both end points. Forest cable yarders used in Europe have a skyline that is fixed at both ends. The behaviour of fixed-anchored suspension ropes is very difficult to describe mathematically and cannot be solved analytically. For this reason, simplified linearized assumptions have so far been used in the forestry sector, which corresponds to the behaviour of a weight-tensioned suspension rope and is known as the Pestal method (1961). Weight-tensioned suspension ropes are used for passenger transport.
For the calculation of the load path curve we use an iterative method, which was described by Zweifel (1960) and developed especially for fixed anchored suspension ropes. This makes mathematics much more demanding, but leads to more accurate and realistic results. Since there are no current models which describe the installation costs with adequate accuracy, the solution sought is the one which has a minimum number of supports in the first priority and minimises the support height in the second priority (Figure 2). The presented method is the first one, which starts from a fixed anchored supporting rope and identifies the mathematically optimal column layout at the same time. In contrast to methods that assume a weight-tensioned suspension rope, this approach achieves more realistic solutions with longer spans and lower support heights, which ultimately leads to lower installation costs. Background information on rope mechanics and calculation methods is documented in Bont and Heinimann (2012).

en: This dataset includes the diversity of soil prokaryotes, fungi and micro-eukaryotes in unmanaged forest reserves with managed forests across nine locations within Switzerland. Forests have been exploited for resources for centuries, which has caused disturbances, altered community structure, and reduced diversity at different scales. Strict forest reserves, where no forest management is practiced, have been implemented to promote biodiversity, by allowing old trees with microhabitats and high deadwood amounts. However, the effectiveness of forest reserves on soil microbial diversity and functional traits are little known at a national scale in Swiss forests. The associated metadata includes local environmental conditions, such as soil pH, organic C, N, deadwood volume, MAT and MAP, and forest type (coniferous vs deciduous).

This dataset contains the results of greenhouse gas emission modeling for the five Swiss Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP-CH) up to the year 2100. Six sector-specific reduced-complexity models were developed specifically for this analysis, enabling the modelling of the SSP-CH storylines. Accordingly, the dataset comprises the outputs of all six models, generated both in the absence of and under the implementation of additional climate policy packages, referred to as Shared Policy Assumptions (SPAs; see related publications).
- Transport model (energy consumption by energy source and transport type/fleet mix)
- Housing model (heating demand and GHG emissions per building category)
- Electricity model (electricity consumption, electricity generation by energy source, installed capacity, district heating)
- Industry model (energy consumption by energy source, subdivided into raw materials/building materials, consumer goods, and processed goods)
- Agriculture model (feed digestion in livestock, manure storage, and nitrogen fertilization)
- Export/Import model (product quantities in import and export, broken down into consumer goods, raw materials/building materials, and processed goods)
- Synthesis model

Spatio-temporal vegetation models are essential for simulating dynamics and shifts
in species distributions over large areas, particularly under global change. One such
model is the dynamic forest landscape model TreeMig. We have developed a frame-
work that makes the model more user-friendly, improves its functionality, and expands
its possibilities. The framework consists of the improved TreeMig model, the R pack-
age ‘TreeMig-R’ for pre-processing input data, model execution and visualization and a
graphical user interface (GUI) for ease of use. The code of the TreeMig Package and the GUI is stored here.

We used 1463 observations of early leaf discoloration presence or absence in Switzerland's European beech (*Fagus sylvatica L.*) forests between 2018 and 2023 and interpolated Sentinel-2 vegetation index time series from Koch et al. (2024) to train a support vector classifier of early leaf discoloration. We applied this classifier to the European beech dominated forest area of Switzerland over the same time period to estimate a probability of early leaf discoloration between 0 and 1 (high probability of early leaf discoloration). The maps intentionally exclude legacy effects of drought like crown dieback or mortality which occurred in prior years.
Early leaf discoloration maps are available at the end of every summer month (June, July, August, and September) 2017 to 2023. Additional maps are available every 5-days during the summer months of 2018. Probability of early leaf discoloration at each date is provided as a GeoTIFF file with a scaled value range of 0 to 10,000 such that a probability of 0.9 is represented by a value of 9000 (a high probability of early leaf discoloration). An optimized probability threshold of 0.4 (4000) is recommended for classification into discolored and not discolored pixels. More details on the methods and results can be found in the publication of Bloom et al. (2026).
***These maps represent an interpreted remote sensing product that approximates ground observations of early leaf discoloration across Switzerland's European beech dominated forests.***
Given ongoing efforts to operationalize an early discoloration pipeline, all data is currently available upon reasonable request. An example of the 2018 5-day time series in the Hardwald (Canton Basel-Land) is available for immediate download.

The TreeMig framework allows for an easy application of the forest landscape model TreeMig for simulating forest dynamics in space under changing environmental and land use conditions.
Here, case study examples in Switzerland are given that simulate the dynamics and spatial spread of competing tree species in a region in Switzerland, the invasion of a hypothetical invasive tree species, and the control of this species via a management model coupled to TreeMig.  The datasets consist of the installation- and GUI starting-script,  example environmental input data for Switzerland, the simulation environment, and further R-scripts for running the simulations and plotting the simulation results directly from R and for coupling TreeMig to the forest management model.

Regional disturbance predisposition maps for windthrow, bark beetle and snow breakage. The maps are created using spatially explicit data of classified forest structure and site factor parameters. The classified input parameters were weighted according to their effect on windthrow, bark beetle and snow breakage predisposition using an expert-based model. The predisposition raster maps (10 x 10 m) represent the sum of expert-weighted effects on the predisposition and are provided as raw values (sum of the effects on predisposition) and as classified layers.
Classified predisposition maps are encoded as follows:
1: low predisposition (-50% quantile based on raw predisposition values)
2: increased predisposition (50–75% quantile)
3: high predisposition (-75–95% quantile)
4: extreme predisposition (-95% quantile)
Also included are the derived forest structure maps for development stage, dominant stand height, number of stems and canopy cover used for the predisposition mapping, as well as the R scripts and example data to re-create these parameters. Forest structure parameters are based on a data set of individual trees detected using a high-resolution vegetation height model. Further included are ArcPy scripts and example data to re-create the predisposition maps. Running the ArcPy scripts requires a valid ArcGis license including the extensions "SpatialAnalyst", "ImageAnalyst" and "3D".
The example data provided here is assembled from different sources; please check the related publication Bührle et al. (in review) for data sources and further information about the processing, the expert-based model, the forest structure derivation and the predisposition mapping.
Also consider reviewing the related datasets and publications Bast et al. (2025) for more information about canopy layering derivation and individual tree detection (ITD).

en: This dataset contains R scripts and pre-processed files to reconstruct the analyses made in the technical note submitted to Ecology Letters as a response to Li & He (2026, https://doi.org/10.1111/ele.70326). In short, I show that the claims made by LH26 (variation in tree growth has increased due to global warming, and that the power exponent between growth variance and mean is b=1.4) are questionable. I show that the reported variance increase in ring widths is an artefact caused by division-based detrending. The reported exponent of 1.4 reflects systematic underestimation, not biological reality of a steep variance-mean scaling. The ecological interpretations built on these foundations cannot be considered reliable.

Jikradia olitoria Say is a Nearctic leafhopper that was recently identified in several European countries. Given its role as the vector of phytoplasmas associated with Grapevine Yellows diseases (GYD) in its native range, its presence in European vineyard agroecosystems could represent an important phytosanitary risk.
Systematic monitoring conducted over two consecutive years (i.e., 2023 and 2024) using chromotropic traps in seven sites allowed to confirm its widespread presence in the southern Alps, both inside vineyards as well as in the nearby forest edge compartment. Moreover, a subset of the collected specimens was analyzed to test potential infection by phytoplasmas associated with Flavescence dorée.

    Description: Insect vectors of 'Candidatus Phytoplasma vitis' associated to grapevine’s Flavescence dorée in Europe. Insect species categorized according to their vector competence, i.e., main vector: primary epidemic grapevine-to-grapevine vector; alternative vector: FD phytoplasma acquisition and transmission confirmed in laboratory and supported by data collected in the field and usually involving other plant species; putative vector: only FDp and/or FDp-like genotypes acquisition confirmed, no indication of ability to transmit FDp to receipient plant. Associated plant species involved in alternative FDp cycle do not represent the complete and known range of host plant species for the listed insect species. Only major and epidemic map-type genotypes are listed. For further details on map-type gene and grouping (i.e., FD1, FD2, and FD3) and vectotype related gene VmpA, refer to Malembic-Maher et al.

en: This dataset comprises the interview guides and the corresponding verbatim transcripts of 16 in-depth, semi-structured expert interviews examining how discretion is understood and exercised in land-use planning, across both plan-making and development control. The three jurisdictions — England (5 interviews), Ireland (5) and Switzerland (6) — were selected for their contrasting approaches to pursuing efficiency and equity through planning regulation, as identified in the companion survey of planning experts (doi:10.16904/envidat.735). The interviews were conducted with planning practitioners and academics across two rounds, structured by a six-question first guide and an eight-question second guide. All interviews were digitally recorded, transcribed verbatim, and anonymised prior to deposit.

Rising temperatures are thawing mountain permafrost, putting infrastructure like buildings, cable cars, and tunnels at risk. While warming air is the main cause, rainfall at high altitudes also plays an important role.
We built a small, portable system to test how active cooling powered by solar panels, can help keep the ground frozen. Experiments showed that rain can sometimes deepen thawing, especially in winter, but in summer under the impact of liquid precipitation it can also briefly refreeze parts of the ground or lead to ground movement.
Outdoor tests over six months showed that a solar-powered cooling system can successfully maintain a stable frozen layer. The results suggest that such systems could help protect infrastructure in mountain regions, though managing rainfall effects is crucial.
The results are described in the publication: Preserving frozen ground with active cooling under seasonal forcing - an experimental study.

en: This dataset contains the responses of an online expert survey on municipal land-use planning regulations governing buildings and open and green spaces across 30 European countries. Using purposive sampling, 73 planning experts – practitioners and academics – rated the priority they assign to thirteen groups of regulations (seven for buildings, six for open and green spaces) and assessed to which extent does each regulation group pursues the objectives of efficiency equity. The survey was administered online between August and December 2023. The dataset is the quantitative companion to the expert-interview dataset on discretion in land-use planning (doi:10.16904/envidat.785).

Soil is the habitat and basis of life for countless creatures. The great importance of soil organisms for the fertility of our soils is widely recognized, but information is sparse on their distribution and possible endangerment in Switzerland. In the present project, target species, i.e. species that are closely linked to the soil, were identified, and for the the first time, information was gathered on the degree of endangerment of the soil ecosystem in Switzerland on the basis of Red List species. For eleven Red List  groups, the species' soil dependency was determined, i.e. whether their life cycle includes stages in or on the soil. The assessment of soil dependency was made using four classes, which enabled the classification not only of insects but also of vertebrates, land snails, lichens and fungi.
