Evaluation of CloudSat snowfall rate profiles by a comparison with in situ micro-rain radar observations in East Antarctica

Alexis Berne

The Antarctic continent is a vast desert and is the coldest and the most unknown area on Earth. It contains the Antarctic ice sheet, the largest continental water reservoir on Earth that could be affected by the current global warming, leading to sea level ...

A novel biomechanical approach for animal behaviour recognition using accelerometers

Kamiar Aminian, Pritish Chakravarty

Data from animal-borne inertial sensors are widely used to investigate several aspects of an animal's life, such as energy expenditure, daily activity patterns and behaviour. Accelerometer data used in conjunction with machine learning algorithms have b ...

Field test and electrode optimization of electrodynamic cleaning systems for solar panels

Christophe Ballif, Aïcha Hessler-Wyser, Matthieu Despeisse, Nicolas Würsch, Antonin Faes, Jacques Levrat

Soiling is the major cause of power loss of photovoltaics (PV) and concentrated solar power (CSP) in desert areas. Electrodynamic cleaning system (EDS) is an automatic and water-free integrated cleaning system for mirrors or solar panels, which uses pulsed ...

Point rainfall statistics for ecohydrological analyses derived from satellite integrated rainfall measurements

Andrea Rinaldo

Satellite rainfall measurements, nowadays commonly available, provide valuable information about the spatial structure of rainfall. In areas with low-density rain gage networks, or where these networks are nonexistent, satellite rainfall measurements can a ...
