This study analyzes 27 cumuliform and stratiform clouds sampled aboard the CIRPAS Twin Otter during the 2004 International Consortium for Atmospheric Research on Transport and Transformation (ICARTT) experiment. The data set was used to assess cloud drople ...
Mountain search and rescue in the Alps of Austria and Switzerland is a prominent and challenging example of emergency response tasks. Significant numbers of search and rescue operations are carried out every year. In Switzerland, the "Alpine Rettung" in 20 ...
Knowledge of extreme precipitation phenomena is of crucial importance to the safety of civil engineering works and for electricity production management in a country of lakes and mountains like Switzerland. In order to study the distribution in space and t ...
The SensorScope project is a collaboration between environmental scientists and hardware/software engineers at EPFL. It will consist of two large-scale outdoor sensor networking deployments, the first on the EPFL campus, and the second on an alpine glacier ...
The dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic energy per unit mass, epsilon, vertical eddy diffusivity, K-z, and the rate of dissipation of temperature variance, X, are estimated over the sloping sides of Lake Geneva both far from and near the bed, using tempe ...

The concentration and chemical composition of ambient fine particulate material (PM2.5) is reported for two sampling sites in the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania metropolitan area: the Department of Energy, National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL) PM study si ...
Due to daylight variability, a design cannot be thoroughly assessed using single-moment simulations, which is why we need dynamic performance metrics like Daylight Autonomy and Useful Daylight Illuminance. Going one step further, the annual variation in pe ...
An important competence for a mobile robot system is the ability to localize and perform context interpretation. This is required to perform basic navigation and to facilitate local specific services. Usually localization is performed based on a purely geo ...
Among all satellite imaging systems, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is useful for monitoring purposes, as they provide data at any time under all weather conditions. Today, three spaceborne SAR systems are operational, while by the end of 2007 three furthe ...
A method is proposed to assess the natural ventilation potential (NVP) of the Basel Region, Switzerland, by taking into account the most comprehensive set of factors involved in natural ventilation. These factors are either driving forces, such as wind pre ...
