Synergetic Aircraft and Ground-Based Remote Sensing and In Situ Measurements of Snowfall Microphysical Properties

Alexis Berne, Jacopo Grazioli, Anne-Claire Marie Billault--Roux

An international field experiment took place in the Swiss Jura in January 2021 as a milestone of the European ICE GENESIS project (www.ice-genesis.eu/), which aims to better measure, understand, and model the ice/snow particle properties and mechanisms res ...

Dual-frequency spectral radar retrieval of snowfall microphysics: a physics-driven deep-learning approach

Alexis Berne, Anne-Claire Marie Billault--Roux, Gionata Ghiggi

The use of meteorological radars to study snowfall microphysical properties and processes is well established, in particular via a few distinct techniques: the use of radar polarimetry, of multi-frequency radar measurements, and of the radar Doppler spectr ...

Experimental study on velocity distributions, secondary currents, and coherent structures in open channel flow with submerged riparian vegetation

Haoran Shi

Riparian vegetation, which is commonly found in natural rivers and open channels, has a strong influence on flow structures. This paper describes a laboratory experiment on velocity distributions, secondary currents, and coherent structures in narrow open- ...

Objective Characterization of Rain Microphysics: Validating a Scheme Suitable for Weather and Climate Models

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

Improving the atmospheric component of hydrological models is beneficial for applications such as water resources assessment and hydropower operations. Within this goal, precise characterization of rain microphysics is key for climate and weather modeling, ...

Variability of the raindrop size distribution across scales in Mediterranean rainfall : characterisation and stochastic simulation

Timothy Hugh Raupach

Measurement of rain is made difficult by the high variability of the precipitation process, down to raindrop scale. Point measurements are generally accurate, but their lack of spatial representativeness is a significant limitation. Weather radars indirect ...

Attenuation of wind-induced pressure perturbations in alpine snow

Marc Parlange, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Chad Higgins

Windpumping has been identified as a process that could potentially enhance sublimation of surface snow at high forcing frequency and spawn air movement deeper in firn at lower frequencies. We performed an experiment to examine the relationship between hig ...

Portfolio construction under information asymmetry

Lionel Coulot

We introduce in this thesis the idea of a variable lookback model, i.e., a model whose predictions are based on a variable portion of the information set. We verify the intuition of this model in the context of experimental finance. We also propose a novel ...

Model misspecification in peaks over threshold analysis

Anthony Christopher Davison, Mária Süveges

Classical peaks over threshold analysis is widely used for statistical modeling of sample extremes, and can be supplemented by a model for the sizes of clusters of exceedances. Under mild conditions a compound Poisson process model allows the estimation of ...
