Lakes are a Swiss national asset and thus provide many potential sites to develop limnological investigations. Being in a landlocked country, however, Swiss students and scientists need to go abroad to gain experience marine issues. Thus, since several years COL support several marine stations in France and Germany securing to Swiss scholars a preferential access to them.  The activities include organization of courses at different levels, participation in field and oceanographic campaigns, possibilities for sabbatical terms, etc.

People interested in participating in these stations please contact Jan Pawlowski or Daniel Ariztegui.

COL sponsors the following marine stations:

Banyuls s/Mer (F)
Roscoff (F)
Wilhelmshaven (D)
