Erosion processes of a novel configuration of sediment replenishment during an artificial flood

Anton Schleiss, Mário Jorge Rodrigues Pereira Da Franca, Severin Stähly

Floodplains downstream of dams with constant residual flow discharge often lack sediment supply and periodic inundation due to the absence of flood events. At the Sarine floodplain in Fribourg, western Switzerland, an artificial flood was released from Ros ...

Characterisation of the melting layer variability in an Alpine valley based on polarimetric X-band radar scans

Alexis Berne, Marco Gabella, Floortje Elisabeth Maria Van den Heuvel

The melting layer designates the transition region from solid to liquid precipitation, and is a typical feature of the vertical structure of stratiform precipitation. As it is characterised by a well-known signature in polarimetric radar variables, it can ...

How Are Turbulent Sensible Heat Fluxes and Snow Melt Rates Affected by a Changing Snow Cover Fraction?

Michael Lehning

The complex interaction between the atmospheric boundary layer and the heterogeneous land surface is typically not resolved in numerical models approximating the turbulent heat exchange processes. In this study, we consider the effect of the land surface h ...

Morphology and interfacial strength of nonisothermally fusion bonded hard and soft thermoplastics

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Pierre-Etienne Bourban, Rajasundar Chandran

Nonisothermally fusion bonded butt joints were prepared by overmolding thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) onto isotactic polypropylene (iPP) inserts in order to investigate the effect of processing conditions on the bond strength and interfacial microstructur ...

The European mountain cryosphere: a review of its current state, trends, and future challenges

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald

The mountain cryosphere of mainland Europe is recognized to have important impacts on a range of environmental processes. In this paper, we provide an overview on the current knowledge on snow, glacier, and permafrost processes, as well as their past, curr ...
