Surface Water Temperature Heterogeneity at Subpixel Satellite Scales and Its Effect on the Surface Cooling Estimates of a Large Lake: Airborne Remote Sensing Results From Lake Geneva

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Abolfazl Irani Rahaghi

The dynamics of spatial heterogeneity of lake surface water temperature (LSWT) at subpixel satellite scale O(1 m) and its effect on the surface cooling estimation at typical satellite pixel areas O(1 km2) were investigated using an airborne platform. The m ...

Impact of evapotranspiration on the local microclimate

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Silvia Coccolo

Climate change is having and will have drastic consequences for high density populated areas such as cities. There is thus a need to develop more tools to evaluate new strategies for adaptation to and mitigation of changing temperatures. Additional functio ...

Local climate impact on the energy demand: an analysis at the European scale

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Silvia Coccolo, Amarasinghage Tharindu Dasun Perera, Cynthia Houmani, Ismaël Krafess

A reduction by 80% of the greenhouse gas emissions as well as a similar decrease for the final energy consumption is needed to respect the energy strategies and climate objectives at the European scale. To address this issue, we analysed the energy demand ...

Ultra-High Power Density Magnetic-less DC/DC Converter Utilizing GaN Transistors

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Remco Franciscus Peter van Erp, Georgios Kampitsis

In this paper, a high step-up magnetic-less DC/DC nX converter is designed and experimentally evaluated. GaN transistors are applied in a nX converter topology, yielding ultrahigh power density and high conversion efficiency. The absence of magnetic materi ...

Deep-water coastal upwelling events during wintertime in a large lake (Lake Geneva)

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Andrea Cimatoribus, Rafael Sebastian Reiss

Convective winter cooling is an important process in the annual cycle of a lake ecosystem, because it brings oxygen to the deeper layers. However, in deep lakes, convective processes are often not strong enough to extend the mixing down to the deepest laye ...

Urban greening archetypes at the European scale

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Silvia Coccolo, Amarasinghage Tharindu Dasun Perera, Nahid Mohajeri Pour Rayeni, Cynthia Houmani, Ismaël Krafess

Urban greening has great ecological, social and economic benefits for the built environment. It also has significant impacts on the microclimate and urban energy balance. In this study, we quantify the impacts of urban greening on the ground surface temper ...
