Context-Specific Selection of Poisson cluster rainfall models for accurate urban hydrological simulations

The Poisson cluster rainfall generation model has been underutilized in urban hydrological simulations due to challenges in reproducing fine-scale extreme precipitation. This study addresses this issue by comprehensively validating four variants of Poisson ...

Good enough: Intermediate complexity atmospheric models improve the representation of processes affecting seasonal snow

Dylan Stewart Reynolds

Snow plays a crucial role in processes regulating ecosystems, the climate, and human development. Mountain snowpack in particular has great relevance for downstream communities. Knowledge about the distribution and properties of the snowpack thus help in p ...

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Flow and Hydrochemistry in Drainage Networks

Izabela Bujak-Ozga

Despite their high ecological value, non-perennial streams have received less attention than their perennial counterparts. This doctoral thesis addresses this disparity by advancing knowledge on the dynamics of the drainage density and hydrologic processes ...

Comparison of the Dynamics of the Flowing Drainage Network and Water Chemistry for Four Headwater Catchments

Andrea Rinaldo, Jana Freiin von Freyberg, Ilja van Meerveld, Izabela Bujak-Ozga

Ecohydrology published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd.The re-emergence of water in dry stream reaches affects streamwater chemistry due to the flushing of sediment and nutrients from previously dry channels and the increased connectivity between hillslopes and s ...

The High-resolution Intermediate Complexity Atmospheric Research (HICAR v1.1) model enables fast dynamic downscaling to the hectometer scale

Franziska Gerber, Dylan Stewart Reynolds

High-resolution ( < 1 km) atmospheric modeling is increasingly used to study precipitation distributions in complex terrain and cryosphere-atmospheric processes. While this approach has yielded insightful results, studies over annual timescales or at the s ...

Assessing the simulation of snowfall at Dumont d'Urville, Antarctica, during the YOPP-SH special observing campaign

Alexis Berne, Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

The performance of a set of atmospheric models and meteorological reanalyses in the representation of precipitation days in Antarctica is assessed using ground-based observations such as a precipitation gauge and a Micro Rain Radar during the Year Of Polar ...

A stable loosely-coupled scheme for cardiac electro-fluid-structure interaction

Alfio Quarteroni

We present a loosely coupled scheme for the numerical simulation of the cardiac electrofluid-structure interaction problem, whose solution is typically computationally intensive due to the need to suitably treat the coupling of the different submodels. Our ...

Secondary ice production processes in wintertime alpine mixed-phase clouds

Alexis Berne, Athanasios Nenes, Anne-Claire Marie Billault--Roux, Georgia Sotiropoulou, Paraskevi Georgakaki

Observations of orographic mixed-phase clouds (MPCs) have long shown that measured ice crystal number concentrations (ICNCs) can exceed the concentration of ice nucleating particles by orders of magnitude. Additionally, model simulations of alpine clouds a ...

Leveraging meteorological radars to investigate the influence of atmospheric dynamics on snowfall microphysics

Josué Etienne Gehring

Precipitation is the result of a chain of meteorological processes ranging from the large- to the micro-scale. While the transport of moisture and lifting mechanisms leading to cloud formation are mostly governed by dynamical processes, the formation and g ...

Measures against the abandonment of common property summer pastures: experimental evidence from joint appropriation-provision games

Ivo Philippe Baur

Common property summer pastures constitute longstanding evidence that the tragedy of the commons can be prevented through self-organization. As a byproduct of their sustainable governance, high nature value farming systems with well-integrated patchy lands ...

Three-dimensional physics-based earthquake ground motion simulations for seismic risk assessment in densely populated urban areas

Alfio Quarteroni

In this paper we describe a mathematical and numerical approach that combines physics-based simulated ground motion caused by earthquakes with fragility functions to model the structural damages induced to buildings. To simulate earthquake ground motion we ...

On the use of modified Boussinesq equation for studying double-layered hillslope recession characteristics

Zhaoyang Luo

Recession flow analysis based on the Boussinesq equation has been widely used to estimate hydraulic parameters of hillslope aquifers. However, previous studies mainly focused on homogeneous hillslope aquifers and showed that the recession curves satisfy th ...
