Leading questions:
A) Geoscience: How does water move in steep bedrock permafrost and its active layer? How does this movement contribute to permafrost degradation, slope instability and weathering?
B) How can we optimise the software of wireless sensor networks for outdoor, low-power operation in order to use them in alpine and arctic areas?
