Diurnal evolution of negative atmospheric ions above the boreal forest: from ground level to the free troposphere

Lubna Dada

At SMEAR II research station in Hyytiala, located in the Finnish boreal forest, the process of new particle formation and the role of ions has been investigated for almost 20 years near the ground and at canopy level. However, above SMEAR II, the vertical ...

The standard operating procedure for Airmodus Particle Size Magnifier and nano-Condensation Nucleus Counter

Lubna Dada

Measurements of aerosol particles and clusters smaller than 3 nm in diameter are performed by many groups in order to detect recently formed or emitted nanoparticles and for studying the formation and early growth processes of aerosol particles. The Airmod ...

Sparsely observed functional time series: estimation and prediction

Victor Panaretos, Tomas Rubin

Functional time series analysis, whether based on time or frequency domain methodology, has traditionally been carried out under the assumption of complete observation of the constituent series of curves, assumed stationary. Nevertheless, as is often the c ...

Meteorological Aspects of Self-Initiated Upward Lightning at the Santis Tower (Switzerland)

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Antonio Sunjerga, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Jacopo Grazioli, Nikola Besic

Interest in exploring the meteorological conditions favoring upward lightning from tall man-made structures has grown in recent years, largely due to the worldwide expansion of wind energy. To this end, instrumented towers existing around the world are the ...

Characteristics of Upward Lightning Flashes

Mohammad Azadifar

In addition to the general aims of lightning research such as lightning physics and meteorology, the study of upward lightning is of particular importance in protection of tall objects such as wind turbines and telecommunication towers. It also helps us in ...

How do patchy snow covers affect turbulent sensible heat fluxes? – Numerical analysis and experimental findings

Michael Lehning, Sebastian Schlögl

The surface energy balance of a snow cover significantly changes once the snow cover gets patchy. The substantial progress in knowledge about the surface energy balance of patchy snow covers is a mandatory requirement to reduce biases in flux parameterizat ...

Editorial: Failure in multiphase geomaterials

Lyesse Laloui

The contributions assembled in the present volume proceed from the lectures of the 2009 ALERT Geomaterials School devoted to the Failure in the multiphase geomaterials. The multiphase behaviour of geomaterials used to be mainly considered from the point of ...
