Using global reanalysis data to quantify and correct airflow distortion bias in shipborne wind speed measurements

Julia Schmale, Sebastian Johannes Heinz-Josef Landwehr

At sea, wind forcing is responsible for the formation and development of surface waves and represents an important source of near-surface turbulence. Therefore, processes related to near-surface turbulence and wave breaking, such as sea spray emission and ...

Tracking Lagrangian transport in Lake Geneva: A 3D numerical modeling investigation

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Andrea Cimatoribus

Lake Geneva, the largest freshwater lake in Western Europe, is subject to important environmental pressures from its densely populated shores and watershed. To maintain and improve water quality in this lake, as well as in other enclosed or semi‐enclosed b ...

Transitions in the wintertime near-surface temperature inversion at Dome C, Antarctica

Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

In this work we study the dynamics of the surface-based temperature inversion over the Antarctic Plateau during the polar winter. Using 6 years of observations from the French-Italian Antarctic station Concordia at Dome C, we investigate sudden regime tran ...

Urban greening archetypes at the European scale

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Silvia Coccolo, Dasaraden Mauree, Amarasinghage Tharindu Dasun Perera, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Cynthia Houmani

Urban greening has great ecological, social and economic benefits for the built environment. It also has significant impacts on the microclimate and urban energy balance. In this study, we quantify the impacts of urban greening on the ground surface temper ...

Convection in Lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard

Lakes and other confined water bodies are not exposed to tides, and their wind forcing is usually much weaker compared to ocean basins and estuaries. Hence, convective processes are often the dominant drivers for shaping mixing and stratification structure ...

Nonlinear dynamics of the near-shore boundary layer of a large lake (Lake Geneva)

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Damien Bouffard, Andrea Cimatoribus

We examine near-shore and pelagic current variability in Lake Geneva, a large and deep lake in western Europe, using observations from several measurement locations and a three-dimensional numerical model for the period 2014-2016. Linear internal seiche mo ...
