Sediment transfer in the Rhône River Basin, Switzerland: the role of localized severe Alpine storm events on triggering turbidity currents in Lake Geneva

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Koen Blanckaert, François Mettra

In Lake Geneva, a deep peri-Alpine lake in Switzerland, the sublacustrine Rhône River delta presents a deep canyon, the Rhône Canyon. Previous studies and recent observations show that low-velocity underflows and high-velocity turbidity currents pass frequ ...

Hybrid multiple-site mass closure and source apportionment of PM2.5 and aerosol acidity at major cities in the Po Valley

Athanasios Nenes, Spyros Pandis

This study investigates the major chemical components, particle-bound water content, acidity (pH), and major potential sources of PM2.5 in major cities (Belluno, Conegliano, Vicenza, Mestre, Padua, and Rovigo) in the eastern end of the Po Valley. The measu ...

Sediment connectivity in Alpine basins: from isolated storms to turbidity currents in deep peri-Alpine lakes (examples from the Rhône basin and Lake Geneva, Switzerland)

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Koen Blanckaert, François Mettra

In the main river canyon of a deep peri-Alpine lake (Rhône River canyon in Lake Geneva, Switzerland), occasional turbidity currents have been observed and monitored using acoustic Doppler current profilers (ADCP) during summer. It has been hypothesized tha ...

Generation and application of river network analogues for use in ecology and evolution

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Luca Carraro, Reinhard Furrer, Florian Altermatt

Several key processes in freshwater ecology are governed by the connectivity inherent to dendritic river networks. These have extensively been analyzed from a geomorphological and hydrological viewpoint, yet structures classically used in ecological modeli ...

Application of an Ensemble Kalman filter to a semi-distributed hydrological flood forecasting system in alpine catchments

Giovanni De Cesare, Javier García Hernández, Alain Tommy Foehn, Anne Schwob

One of the key success factor for hydrological forecasts is the establishment of initial conditions that represent well the conditions of the simulated basin at the beginning of the forecast. Real-time Data Assimilation (DA) has been shown to allow improvi ...

Bromide Sources and Loads in Swiss Surface Waters and Their Relevance for Bromate Formation during Wastewater Ozonation

Urs von Gunten

Bromide measurements and mass balances in the catchments of major Swiss rivers revealed that chemical industry and municipal waste incinerators are the most important bromide sources and account for similar to 50% and similar to 20%, respectively, of the s ...

Extreme flood estimations on a small alpine catchment in Switzerland, the case study of Limmerboden

Anton Schleiss, Javier García Hernández, Fränz Zeimetz

In this paper, a case study on the estimations of extreme floods is described. The watershed chosen for the analysis is the catchment of the Limmernboden dam situated in Switzerland. Statistical methods and the simulation based "Probable Maximum Precipitat ...

Into the abyss of Lake Geneva: the elemo interdisciplinary field investigation using the MIR submersibles

Alfred Johny Wüest, Ulrich Lemmin, Jeremy Samuel Arey

In summer 2011, the two Russian MIR submersibles were brought to Switzerland to perform deep water dives in Lake Geneva. Research teams from several environmental science institutes, both national and international, participated in this interdisciplinary e ...
