Pictures of the Month 2018

Sphinx terrace at Jungfraujoch: the cold turned the inlet into an ice sculpture. Photo: © Dr. Longfei Yu, Empa.

Jessie Creamean from National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Boulder, Colorado, who is interested in better understanding the interactions between aerosols and clouds, visited colleagues from the University of Basel. They spent some time at Jungfraujoch for a measurement campaign at cloud height. The picture shows a close-up of a water droplet lying on a cold stage. This setup is meant to do snow crystal freezing experiments. Photo: © Claudia Mignani, University of Basel

In March, a delegation of Senior Arctic Officials and of Ambassadors of the Nordic countries visited the High Altitude Research Station Jungfraujoch. Despite the 'arctic' weather, a group photo was taken on the Sphinx-terrace. Photo: Ruedi Käser
Researchers of the University of Zurich are visiting the High Altitude Research Station Jungfraujoch. Between May and July 2018, biologists and physicians are performing physiological experiments (e.g. physical exercise) at 3500 m altitude. Picture: © Minh Tri Le
The renovation of the researcher kitchen and the new carpeting in the bedrooms of the research station Jungfraujoch are finished. Pictures: Ruedi Käser
The picture shows the PC-7 TEAM of the Swiss Army while overflying the Aletsch glacier. Even though the formation is an eye catcher, the emissions of the planes interfere with the measurements of the researchers at Jungfraujoch. Picture: © Martin Vollmer, Empa

Researchers of the Helmholtz Zentrum München (Vladimir Mares (on the left side of the picture) and Thomas Brall (middle)) and the University of Bern (Dr. Rolf Bütikofer (on the right)) continued in 2018 their measurements of the neutron spectrum at Jungfraujoch – this time under summery conditions (see Picture of the Month 2016-07). Among others, the Bonner Spheres were installed under the protection roof of the research station (picture).Photo: © Vladimir Mares
The duties of the custodians at Jungfraujoch include the daily weather reports to MeteoSwiss. Five times a day they make a weather observation and forward their data to the official Swiss meteorological agency. To be able to do so, the custodians are schooled by a meteorologist. The picture shows Heinz Graf from MeteoSwiss during a refresher course with Christine and Ruedi Käser. Picture: Ruedi Käser
The Stellarium Gornergrat project had to fight with some difficulties this year, as in July the Kulmhotel and the dome at Gornergrat were hit by lightning, which caused a lot of damage on the hardware and the infrastructure of the Stellarium. The project-manager, Dr. Timm Riesen (in the picture), was working hard to get the project going again. Photo: © Roland P. Poschung (mua.ch/kulturonline.ch)
