An automated calibration framework and open source tools for 3D lake hydrodynamic models

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Theo Baracchini, Andrea Cimatoribus

Understanding lake dynamics is crucial to provide scientifically credible information for ecosystem management. In this context, three-dimensional hydrodynamic models are a key information source to assess critical but often subtle changes in lake dynamics ...

Energetics of Radiatively Heated Ice-Covered Lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Kraig Bates Winters

We derive the mechanical energy budget for shallow, ice-covered lakes energized by penetrative solar radiation. Radiation increases the available and background components of the potential energy at different rates. Available potential energy drives under- ...

Contribution of 3D coupled hydrodynamic-ecological modeling to assess the representativeness of a sampling protocol for lake water quality assessment

Damien Bouffard, Robert Eduard Uittenbogaard, Frédéric Charles Soulignac

This study deals with the impact of spatio-temporal heterogeneities on the assessment of lake ecological status according to the European water framework directive (WFD). A method, based on three-dimensional coupled hydrodynamic and ecological modeling, is ...

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 ...

Implications of river intrusion and convective mixing on the spatial and temporal variability of under-ice CO2

Natacha Tofield-Pasche, Damien Bouffard

Ice-covered periods might significantly contribute to lake emissions at ice-melt, yet a comprehensive understanding of under-ice carbon dioxide (CO2) dynamics is still lacking. This study investigated the processes driving spatiotemporal patterns of under- ...

Resolving biogeochemical processes in lakes using remote sensing

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Theo Baracchini, Vincent Maurice Nouchi

Remote sensing helps foster our understanding of inland water processes allowing a synoptic view of water quality parameters. In the context of global monitoring of inland waters, we demonstrate the benefit of combining in-situ water analysis, hydrodynamic ...

Differential Heating Drives Downslope Flows that Accelerate Mixed-LayerWarming in Ice-Covered Waters

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez, Kraig Bates Winters

In ice-covered lakes, penetrative radiation warms fluid beneath a diffusive boundary layer, thereby increasing its density and providing energy for convection in a diurnally active, deepening mixed layer. Shallow regions are differentially heated to warmer ...

Convection‐Diffusion Competition Within Mixed Layers of Stratified Natural Waters

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner

In stratified natural waters, convective processes tend to form nearly homogeneous mixed layers. However, shear‐driven turbulence generated by large‐scale background flow often rapidly smooths them through mixing with the stratified surroundings. Here we s ...

Le Lac de Zurich en Ligne - Prévisions hydrodynamiques 3D en temps-réel sur meteolakes.ch. Aqua & Gas - Fachzeitschrift für Gas, Wasser und Abwasser

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Theo Baracchini

Les lacs constituent d’importantes ressources en eau potable en Suisse, château d’eau de l’Europe. Pourtant, ils sont souvent négligés dans le cycle hydrologique global. Menacés à la fois à l’échelle globale par les changements climatiques, ainsi qu’à l’éc ...

Mechanical energy budget and mixing efficiency for a radiatively heated ice-covered waterbody

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez

Ice-covered waterbodies are far from being quiescent systems. In this paper, we investigate ice-covered freshwater basins heated by solar radiation that penetrates across waters with temperatures below or near the temperature of maximum density. In this sc ...

Using small-scale measurements to estimate hypolimnetic oxygen depletion in a deep lake

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Robert Vincent Schwefel

Low oxygen concentrations in lakes and reservoirs are an ongoing environmental concern, particularly in light of increasing anthropogenic activity and climate change. Oxygen depletion processes in lakes are still not completely understood and a variety of ...

Hydrodynamics of a periodically wind‑forced small and narrow stratified basin: a large‑eddy simulation experiment

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner, Serban George Constantinescu, Kyoung Sik Chang, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez

We report novel results of a numerical experiment designed for examining the basin-scale hydrodynamics that control the mass, momentum, and energy distribution in a daily wind-forced, small thermally-stratified basin. For this purpose, the 3-D Boussinesq e ...

Improving surface heat flux estimation for a large lake through model optimization and two-point calibration: The case of Lake Geneva

Ulrich Lemmin, Damien Bouffard, David Andrew Barry, Abolfazl Irani Rahaghi, Andrea Cimatoribus

Net Surface Heat Flux (SurHF) was estimated from 2008 to 2014 for Lake Geneva (Switzerland/France), using long‐term temperature depth profiles at two locations, hourly maps of reanalysis meteorological data from a numerical weather model and lake surface w ...

Tributaries affect the thermal response of lakes to climate change

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard

Thermal responses of inland waters to climate change varies on global and regional scales. The extent of warming is determined by system-specific characteristics such as fluvial input. Here we examine the impact of ongoing climate change on two alpine trib ...

Effects of non-uniform vertical constituent profiles on remote sensing reflectance of oligo- to mesotrophic lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Vincent Maurice Nouchi

We investigate the impact on remote sensing reflectance by the vertical non-uniformities of water constituents. Reflectance simulated for 210 pairs of in situ measured chlorophyll-a and turbidity profiles (z = 0–20 m) from Lake Geneva are compared to simul ...

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

Ulrich Lemmin, Damien Bouffard, David Andrew Barry, 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 ...

Scaling oxygen microprofiles at the sediment interface of deep stratified waters

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Robert Vincent Schwefel, Miki Hondzo

Dissolved oxygen microprofiles at the sediment-water interface of Lake Geneva were measured concurrently with velocities 0.25 to 2m above the sediment. The measurements and scaling analyses indicate dissolved oxygen fluctuations and turbulent fluxes in exc ...

Gyre formation in open and deep lacustrine embayments: The example of Lake Geneva, Switzerland

Ulrich Lemmin, Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, David Andrew Barry, Amir Mehdi Razmi, Robert Eduard Uittenbogaard

Numerical simulations were carried out to investigate gyres within open lacustrine embayments subjected to parallel-to-shore currents. In such embayments, gyre formation occurs due to flow separation at the embayment’s upstream edge. High momentum fluid fr ...
