Links between atmospheric aerosols and sea state in the Arctic Ocean

Julia Schmale, Roman Pohorsky, Alireza Moallemi

Sea spray emission is the largest mass flux of aerosols to the atmosphere with important impact on atmospheric radiative transfer. However, large uncertainties still exit in constraining this mass flux and its climate forcing, in particular in the Arctic, ...

Roles of marine biota in the formation of atmospheric bioaerosols, cloud condensation nuclei, and ice-nucleating particles over the North Pacific Ocean, Bering Sea, and Arctic Ocean

We investigated the association of marine biological indicators (polysaccharides, protein-like gel particles, and chl a ) with the formation of fluorescent aerosol particles, cloud condensation nuclei (CCNs), and ice-nucleating particles (INPs) over the No ...

A Novel Method to Quantify Near-Surface Boundary-Layer Dynamics at Ultra-High Spatio-Temporal Resolution

Michael Lehning, Dylan Stewart Reynolds, Michael Haugeneder

The lateral transport of heat above abrupt (sub-)metre-scale steps in land surface temperature influences the local surface energy balance. We present a novel experimental method to investigate the stratification and dynamics of the near-surface atmospheri ...

A Case Study on Drivers of the Isotopic Composition of Water Vapor at the Coast of East Antarctica

Michael Lehning, Armin Sigmund

Stable water isotopes (SWIs) contain valuable information on the past climate and phase changes in the hydrologic cycle. Recently, vapor measurements in the polar regions have provided new insights into the effects of snow-related and atmospheric processes ...

Orographic Flow Influence on Precipitation During an Atmospheric River Event at Davis, Antarctica

Alexis Berne, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon, Anne-Claire Marie Billault--Roux, Josué Etienne Gehring, Alfonso Ferrone

Intense snowfall sublimation was observed during a precipitation event over Davis in the Vestfold Hills, East Antarctica, from 08 to 10 January 2019. Radar observations and simulations from the Weather Research and Forecasting model revealed that orographi ...

Extreme Hydrodynamic impact onto buildings

Davide Wüthrich

Dam failures, impulse waves, tsunamis and storm surges are disasters that challenge humanity, often leading to massive casualties and important economic losses. These events generate highly unsteady flow conditions in the form of surges or turbulent bores, ...

Octave-spanning dissipative Kerr soliton frequency combs in Si3N4 microresonators

Tobias Kippenberg, Junqiu Liu, Maxim Karpov, Martin Hubert Peter Pfeiffer, Hairun Guo, Erwan Guillaume Albert Lucas, Michail Zervas

Octave-spanning, self-referenced frequency combs are applied in diverse fields ranging from precision metrology to astrophysical spectrometer calibration. The octave-spanning optical bandwidth is typically generated through non-linear spectral broadening o ...

Dynamic ornament: An investigation of responsive thermochromic surfaces in architecture

Jeffrey Huang, Mark Meagher

This paper describes the use of environmental sensor data as a basis for the design of architectural ornament that takes on a distinctive appearance in response to the atmospheric conditions where it is located. Among the goals of the project were the iden ...

Atmospheric Boundary Layer Dynamics of Transitional Flows over Complex Terrain

Daniel Nadeau

Recent advances in boundary-layer meteorology are beginning to allow the study of atmospheric flow phenomena that have previously been poorly understood. In this dissertation, we study the effects of complex terrain and unsteady regimes on the atmospheric ...

Fiber optic distributed temperature sensing for the determination of the nocturnal atmospheric boundary layer height

Marc Parlange, Wolf Hendrik Huwald

A new method for measuring air temperature profiles in the atmospheric boundary layer at high spatial and temporal resolution is presented. The measurements are based on Raman scattering distributed temperature sensing (DTS) with a fiber optic cable attach ...
