The Latitudinal Variability of Oceanic Rainfall Properties and Its Implication for Satellite Retrievals: 2. The Relationships Between Radar Observables and Drop Size Distribution Parameters

Jussi Sakari Leinonen

In this study, we develop statistical relationships between radar observables and drop size distribution properties in different latitude bands to inform radar rainfall retrieval techniques and understand underpinning microphysical reasons for differences ...

Cavitation induction by projectile impacting on a water jet

Mohamed Farhat

The present paper focuses on the simulation of the high-velocity impact of a projectile impacting on a water-jet, causing the onset, development and collapse of cavitation. The simulation of the fluid motion is carried out using an explicit, compressible, ...

On the fine vertical structure of the low troposphere over the coastal margins of East Antarctica

Alexis Berne, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

In this study, 8 years of high-resolution radiosonde data at nine Antarctic stations are analysed to provide the first large-scale characterization of the fine vertical structure of the low troposphere up to 3 km altitude over the coastal margins of East A ...

Orb5: A global electromagnetic gyrokinetic code using the PIC approach in toroidal geometry

Laurent Villard, Stephan Brunner, Alberto Bottino, Ben McMillan, Sébastien Jolliet, Paolo Angelino, Julien Stanislas Pierre Dominski, Noé Thomas Elie Ohana, Emmanuel Lanti, Claudio Gheller, Thibaut Vernay, Aaron Lewis Scheinberg, Peter François Tony Donnel

This paper presents the current state of the global gyrokinetic code Orb5 as an update of the previous reference (Jolliet et al., 2007). The Orb5 code solves the electromagnetic Vlasov–Maxwell system of equations using a PIC scheme and also includes collis ...

Radar-rain gauge merging and discharge data assimilation for flood forecasting in Alpine catchments

Alain Tommy Foehn

Floods are responsible for one third of the economic losses induced by natural hazards throughout the world. To better protect the population and infrastructures, flood forecasting systems make us of weather forecasts to foresee floods several days in adva ...

Importance of the advection scheme for the simulation of water isotopes over Antarctica by atmospheric general circulation models: A case study for present-day and Last Glacial Maximum with LMDZ-iso

Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

Atmospheric general circulation models (AGCMs) are known to have a warm and isotopically enriched bias over Antarctica. We test here the hypothesis that these biases are partly consequences of a too diffusive advection. Exploiting the LMDZ-iso model, we sh ...

Suppressing tip vortex cavitation by winglets

Mohamed Farhat, Ali Amini, Martino Reclari

Despite the numerous remedies prescribed so far, tip vortex cavitation (TVC) remains a major issue in design and operation of diverse applications. In this paper, we experimentally investigate the effectiveness of winglets in suppressing TVC. An elliptical ...
