_Heinz Blatter is Professor at ETH Zurich since 1999. He completed his studies in physics with adiploma thesis (equiv. to MSc) on „Spin correlation in Fermions“ at the Department of Physics, ETH, Zurich in 1972. The work for his doctoral thesis at ETH Zurich on the thermodynamics of polarglaciers included field work in 1974/75 in the Canadian high arctic. His current research interests arethe numerical modelling of the physics of Alpine glaciers, with a focus on their future evolution, andice sheets, with a focus on glacial cycles. _Thomas Greber obtained his Ph D at ETH Zürich on Two Aspects concerning 4f impurities on metals in1990. From 1991 to 1994 he worked at the Fritz-Haber-Institut in Berlin on non-adiabatic gas surfacereactions. Since 2004 he is Professor at the Physik-Institut of the University of Zürich. His maininterests in research are sp2 hybridized single layer hexagonal boron nitride and molecules likemagnetic endofullerenes on surfaces that he investigates with photoemission, scanning tunnelingmicroscopy and squid magnetometry. http://www.physik.uzh.ch/~greber/
