Small-scale and mesoscale lake surface water temperature structure: Thermography and in situ measurements from Lake Geneva, Switzerland

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

Lake surface water temperature (LSWT), which varies spatially and temporarily, reflects meteorological and climatological forcing more than any other physical lake parameter. There are different data sources for LSWT mapping, including remote sensing and i ...

Windfield: Learning Wind Meteorology with Handheld Haptic Robots

Pierre Dillenbourg, Francesco Mondada, Wafa Monia Benkaouar Johal, Ayberk Özgür

This article presents a learning activity and its user study involving the Cellulo platform, a novel versatile robotic tool designed for education. In order to show the potential of Cellulo in the classroom as part of standard curricular activities, we des ...

Optimizing the parameterization of deep mixing and internal seiches in one-dimensional hydrodynamic models: a case study with Simstrat v1.3

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Robert Vincent Schwefel, Adrien Gaudard, Carl Love Mikael Råman Vinnå, Martin Schmid

This paper presents an improvement of a one-dimensional lake hydrodynamic model (Simstrat) to characterize the vertical thermal structure of deep lakes. Using physically based arguments, we refine the transfer of wind energy to basin-scale internal waves ( ...

Investigation of the incoming wind vector for improved wind turbine yaw-adjustment under different atmospheric and wind farm conditions

Varun Sharma, Marc Calaf Bracons

Regardless of the evolution of wind energy harvesting, the way in which turbines obtain in-situ meteorological information remains the same - i.e. using traditional wind vanes and cup anemometers installed at the turbine's nacelle, right behind the blades. ...

Gravel bars are sites of increased CO2 outgassing in stream corridors

Tom Ian Battin

Streams are significant sources of CO2 to the atmosphere. Estimates of CO2 evasion fluxes (fCO2) from streams typically relate to the free flowing water but exclude geomorphological structures within the stream corridor. We found that gravel bars (GBs) are ...

Influence of the Coriolis force on the structure and evolution of wind turbine wakes

Fernando Porté Agel, Mahdi Abkar

In this study, large-eddy simulation combined with a turbine model is used to investigate the effect of vertical wind veer associated with the Coriolis force on the structure and evolution of wind turbine wakes. In order to isolate the Coriolis effect on t ...

Transport and mixing in Lac Léman

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Andrea Cimatoribus

Lake Geneva (Lac Léman) is the largest freshwater body in Western Europe. It is a deep peri-alpine lake whose importance stems from being not only an essential freshwater source in the region, but also a major tourist destination, a fishery and a waterway. ...

Estimates of the temperature flux-temperature gradient relation above a sea floor

Andrea Cimatoribus

The relation between the flux of temperature (or buoyancy), the vertical temperature gradient and the height above the bottom is investigated in an oceanographic context, using high-resolution temperature measurements. The model for the evolution of a stra ...
