On the importance of the humidity flux for the surface mass balance in the accumulation zone of the Greenland Ice Sheet

Sonja Wahl

It is highly uncertain how the humidity flux between the snow surface and the atmosphere contributes to the surface mass balance (SMB) of the interior Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS). Due to sparse observations, evaluations of the simulated humidity flux are li ...

Calibrating and validating the Integrated Valuation of Ecosystem Services and Tradeoffs (InVEST) urban cooling model: case studies in France and the United States

Martí Bosch Padrós

Understanding the cooling service provided by vegetation in cities is important to inform urban policy and planning. However, the performance of decision-support tools estimating heat mitigation for urban greening strategies has not been evaluated systemat ...

Arctic warming by abundant fine sea salt aerosols from blowing snow

Jian Wang, Julia Schmale, Xin Yang, Markus Frey, Nora Bergner

The Arctic warms nearly four times faster than the global average, and aerosols play an increasingly important role in Arctic climate change. In the Arctic, sea salt is a major aerosol component in terms of mass concentration during winter and spring. Howe ...

A 2000-year temperature reconstruction on the East Antarctic plateau from argon-nitrogen and water stable isotopes in the Aurora Basin North ice core

Jérôme Chappellaz

The temperature of the Earth is one of the most important climate parameters. Proxy records of past climate changes, in particular temperature, represent a fundamental tool for exploring internal climate processes and natural climate forcings. Despite the ...

A full year of aerosol size distribution data from the central Arctic under an extreme positive Arctic Oscillation: insights from the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada, Jakob Boyd Pernov, Benjamin Jérémy Laurent Heutte

The Arctic environment is rapidly changing due to accelerated warming in the region. The warming trend is driving a decline in sea ice extent, which thereby enhances feedback loops in the surface energy budget in the Arctic. Arctic aerosols play an importa ...

Intensification of sub-daily rainfall extremes in a low-rise urban area

Gabriele Manoli

Short-duration extreme rainfall events are the main trigger of flash and pluvial floods in cities. Depending on the local climate zone and urban fabric that affect meteorological variables such as air temperature, humidity, and aerosol concentration, the b ...

The Role of Hydraulic Failure in a Massive Mangrove Die-Off Event

Alice Jacqueline Frédérique Gauthey

Between late 2015 and early 2016, more than 7,000 ha of mangrove forest died along the coastline of the Gulf of Carpentaria, in northern Australia. This massive die-off was preceded by a strong 2015/2016 El Nino event, resulting in lower precipitation, a d ...

Elucidating the present-day chemical composition, seasonality and source regions of climate-relevant aerosols across the Arctic land surface

Julia Schmale

The Arctic is warming two to three times faster than the global average, and the role of aerosols is not well constrained. Aerosol number concentrations can be very low in remote environments, rendering local cloud radiative properties highly sensitive to ...

Highly Stretchable Flame-Retardant Skin for Soft Robotics with Hydrogel-Montmorillonite-Based Translucent Matrix

Hritwick Banerjee

Flame-retardant coatings are crucial for intelligent systems operating in high-temperature (300-800 degrees C) scenarios, which typically involve multi-joint discrete or continuous kinematic systems. These multi-segment motion generation systems call for c ...

Simulation of long-term spatiotemporal variations in regional-scale groundwater recharge: contributions of a water budget approach in cold and humid climates

Emmanuel Qays Dubois

Groundwater recharge (GWR) is a strategic hydrologic variable, and its estimate is necessary to implement sustainable groundwater management. This is especially true in a global warming context that highly impacts key winter conditions in cold and humid cl ...

Worldwide performance evaluation of ground surface reflectance models

Christophe Ballif, Arttu Matias Tuomiranta

To improve the accuracy of bifacial gain estimation, recent radiative models of solar energy systems have abandoned the traditional assumption of isotropic ground-reflected radiance. However, surface reflectance itself is still commonly considered as a con ...

Evolution of stream and lake water temperature under climate change

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Bettina Schaefli, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Adrien Michel, Carl Love Mikael Råman Vinnå

This report presents past observations and projects the future development of water temperature in Swiss lakes and rivers. Projections are made until the end of the 21st century using the CH2018 climate scenarios. Besides climate change effects on temperat ...

Dissociative Sticking Probability of Methane on Pt(110)-(2×1)

Rainer Beck, Ana Gutiérrez González

In this work, we revisit the dissociative sticking of methane on Pt(110)-(2×1) using quasi-classical trajectory (QCT) calculations and supersonic molecular beam (SMB) experiments. Experimentally, we apply the King and Wells method and the reflection absorp ...

Hydrological trends and the evolution of catchment research in the Alptal valley, central Switzerland

Jana Freiin von Freyberg, Ilja van Meerveld

When the observation of small headwater catchments in the pre-Alpine Alptal valley (central Switzerland) started in the late 1960s, the researchers were mainly interested in questions related to floods and forest management. Investigations of geomorphologi ...

Foliar respiration is related to photosynthetic, growth and carbohydrate response to experimental drought and elevated temperature

Charlotte Grossiord

Short-term plant respiration (R) increases exponentially with rising temperature, but drought could reduce respiration by reducing growth and metabolism. Acclimation may alter these responses. We examined if species with different drought responses would d ...
