The domain of water sciences includes a broad spectrum of disciplines, which deal with fundamental aspects of water-related problems of modern society. Aquatic ecosystems (streams, rivers, estuaries, lakes, wetlands and marine environments) are structured by the interaction of physical, biological and chemical processes at multiple spatial and temporal scales. TENACIOUS is an interdisciplinary professorship program aimed at understanding feedback mechanisms between fluid flow and transported particles at multiple scales for the case where particles are active, i.e. they react back to the flow due to inertia or motility. Experiments that rely on the Lagrangian approach, i.e. based on a moving frame reference system that follows the motion of particles, have become available today and allow studying key environmental problems such as turbulent mixing and contaminant dispersion, transport of sediments and colloidal aggregates, collective motion of planktonic organisms, etc., in a most direct way.In the first phase of the professorship a large interdisciplinary research team has been established that focuses on hydromechanics, environmental transport processes, and flow-organism interactions in the frame of a SNSF Professorship whose focal themes are:•To uncover universal relations governing organisms in natural and man-made water bodies, where fluid flow shapes complex systems at every scale, ranging from fish schools and plankton swarms down to bacterial colonies, and to translate these relations into optimal design and intervention criteria.•To understand and model ecohydraulic processes at physical interfaces (e.g. surface-subsurface flow) whose set of chemical and physical attributes, biotic properties and material flow processes supports a large diversity and strength of interactions between organisms at different temporal and spatial scales. •To understand and model human impacts on aquatic ecosystems such as pollution dispersion, adverse impacts of hydropower operation, channelization and flood control, and to design new mitigation strategies based on the fundamental understanding of physico-biological couplings.The aim of this follow-up proposal is to advance two key lines of investigation emerged as novel and relevant in the first phase and to generalize findings on flow-organism interactions across spatial scales, leading to a high impact and a review paper on universal relations governing organisms in natural and man-made water bodies. This will provide the transition to a possible ETH Chair in ‘Multiscale Ecohydraulics’ currently under discussion in the Department. The two specific research objectives of the follow-up proposal are:1)To elucidate how physical and biological factors affect collective swimming behavior of planktonic and benthic organisms in turbulent flow to enable a deeper understanding of environmental impacts of natural or anthropogenic origin at multiple spatial scales and biological levels.2)To investigate the dynamics of colloidal particle remobilization in laboratory experiments mimicking high-rate well pumping and rain infiltration events in soils, to understand which specific combinations of physical and chemical changes in aquifers induce the release of nanoparticles and colloids.TENACIOUS’ multidisciplinary profile will continue to favour and consolidate existing international and national scientific collaborations, with anticipated results meeting both basic and practical research questions. Diffusion of knowledge will be promoted by publications in peer-reviewed international journals, presentations at relevant international conferences (e.g. IAHR, ASLO, AGU, APS) and national scientific forums.
