In situ observations of the Swiss periglacial environment using GNSS instruments

Alessandro Cicoira

Monitoring of the periglacial environment is relevant for many disciplines including glaciology, natural hazard management, geomorphology, and geodesy. Since October 2022, Rock Glacier Velocity (RGV) is a new Essential Climate Variable (ECV) product within ...

Radar and ground-level measurements of clouds and precipitation collected during the POPE 2020 campaign at Princess Elisabeth Antarctica

Alexis Berne, Alfonso Ferrone

The datasets presented in this article were collected during a four-months measurement campaign at the Belgian research base Princess Elisabeth Antarctica (PEA). The campaign, named PEA Orographic Precipitation Experiment (POPE), was conducted by the Envir ...

Reinforcement Learning for the occupant-centric operation of building energy systems: Theoretical and experimental investigations

Amirreza Heidari

Occupant behavior, defined as the presence and energy-related actions of occupants, is today known as a key driver of building energy use. Closing the gap between what is provided by building energy systems and what is actually needed by occupants requires ...

Snowfall and snow accumulation during the MOSAiC winter and spring seasons

Michael Lehning, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, David Nicholas Wagner, Markus Frey

Data from the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition allowed us to investigate the temporal dynamics of snowfall, snow accumulation and erosion in great detail for almost the whole accumulation season (No ...

Considering snow depositions and transport mechanisms in meteorological analysis of predicting snow loads on buildings

Michael Lehning

The meteorological conditions determine snow evolutions on and around buildings. Those climatic impacts have been independently considered in the current design codes of buildings, namely the wind pressure and the snow load. But snow load estimates are onl ...

Optimized market value of alpine solar photovoltaic installations

Annelen Kahl, Jérôme François Sylvain Dujardin

Solar photovoltaic (PV) is the most rapidly expanding renewable resource worldwide. Yet, its full potential may be hindered by mismatches with market demand and correlated production profiles. In this research, we explore a case study of innovative PV plac ...

Heat recovery potential from ventilated passive and active facades

Dolaana Khovalyg, Mohammad Rahiminejad

A ventilated air-space behind external claddings can potentially affect the thermal performance of the entire building structure. In particular, in the Building Integrated Photovoltaic (BIPV) facades, ventilated cavities are typically present between the P ...

Estimating the non-dimensional energy of vortex rings by modelling their roll-up

Karen Ann J Mulleners, Guillaume de Guyon-Crozier

The non-dimensional energy of starting vortex rings typically converges to values around 0.33 when they are created by a piston-cylinder or a bluff body translating at a constant speed. To explore the limits of the universality of this value and to analyse ...

The Microphysics of Stratiform Precipitation During OLYMPEX: Compatibility Between Triple-Frequency Radar and Airborne In Situ Observations

Jussi Sakari Leinonen

The link between stratiform precipitation microphysics and multifrequency radar observables is thoroughly investigated by exploiting simultaneous airborne radar and in situ observations collected from two aircraft during the OLYMPEX/RADEX (Olympic Mountain ...

Identification of snowfall microphysical processes from Eulerian vertical gradients of polarimetric radar variables

Alexis Berne, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon, Josué Etienne Gehring

Polarimetric radar systems are commonly used to study the microphysics of precipitation. While they offer continuous measurements with a large spatial coverage, retrieving information about the microphysical processes that govern the evolution of snowfall ...
