Localized meteorological variables influence at the early design stage

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Dasaraden Mauree, Silvia Coccolo, Emanuele Naboni

A measurement campaign was set up in Lausanne. The objective of this study is to define the importance of using local meteorological variables in the design of urban spaces and in the evaluation of building energy use. Urban simulation tools typically use ...

Multi-scale modelling to assess human comfort in urban canyons

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Dasaraden Mauree, Silvia Coccolo

As the impact of climate change progresses, heat waves are expected to increase significantly in the future. Coupled with the urban heat island effect, this will tend to have a major impact on the comfort of the inhabitants in urban areas. It is thus cruci ...

Systems and methods for computing and displaying navigation indicators based on historic and real-time vessel data

Julien Pilet, Jonas Olof Martin Östlund

System and methods for computing true wind and true current are described. True wind estimation occurs through automatic calibration of data obtained from data acquisition devices (102, 114, 116, 118, 120). Real-time boat performance information is generat ...

Examining Building Design Decisions Under Long Term Weather Variability and Microclimatic Effects: A case-based exploratory study

Marilyne Andersen, Luisa Pastore, Parag Rastogi, Margaux Marie Valérie Peltier, Minu Agarwal

Thermal building simulation currently uses Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) data to guide the design decision-making process or for compliance with energy standards. TMY data usually excludes extremes and in many cases are gathered from microclimatic cont ...

Embedding Stochasticity in Building Simulation Through Synthetic Weather Files

Marilyne Andersen, Parag Rastogi

This paper presents an attempt to create synthetic weather data for stochastic building simulation. The synthetic data are created entirely from the freely available Typical Meteorological Year (TMY) weather files using time series models and resampling. T ...

Seasonal Spatial Patterns of Surface Water Temperature, Surface Heat Fluxes and Meteorological Forcing Over Lake Geneva

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

In many lakes, surface heat flux (SHF) is the most important component controlling the lake’s energy content. Accurate methods for the determination of SHF are valuable for water management, and for use in hydrological and meteorological models. Large lake ...

Polarimetric radar and in situ observations of riming and snowfall microphysics during CLACE 2014

Alexis Berne, Jacopo Grazioli, Luca Panziera

This study investigates the microphysics of winter alpine snowfall occurring in mixed-phase clouds in an inner-Alpine valley during January and February 2014. The available observations include high-resolution polarimetric radar and in situ measurements of ...

Instrumental correction of the uneven PMT aging effect on the calibration constant of a water vapor Raman lidar

Bertrand Calpini, Valentin Simeonov, Salomon Fastig

The water vapor profile derived from Raman lidar measurements is obtained by taking the ratio of water vapor and nitrogen Raman-shifted signals. The proportionality factor that converts the signal ratio to water vapor/air mixing ratio is referred to as lid ...

Observations of continental biogenic impacts on marine aerosol and clouds off the coast of California

Athanasios Nenes, Zheng Wang

During the 2011 Eastern Pacific Emitted Aerosol Cloud Experiment (E-PEACE) and 2013 Nucleation in California Experiment (NiCE) field campaigns, a predominantly organic aerosol (> 85% by mass) was observed in the free troposphere over marine stratocumulus o ...
