On the suitability of the Thorpe-Mason model for calculating sublimation of saltating snow

Varun Sharma, Michael Lehning, Francesco Comola

The Thorpe and Mason (TM) model for calculating the mass lost from a sublimating snow grain is the basis of all existing small-and large-scale estimates of drifting snow sublimation and the associated snow mass balance of polar and alpine regions. We revis ...

Revisiting the Thorpe-Mason model for calculating sublimation of saltating snow

Varun Sharma, Michael Lehning, Francesco Comola

The Thorpe and Mason (TM) model for calculating the mass lost from a sublimating snow grain is the basis of all existing small- and large-scale estimates of drifting snow sublimation and the associated snow mass balance of polar and alpine regions. We revi ...

Effect of meso-scale surface water temperature heterogeneity on surface cooling estimates of a large lake: Airborne remote sensing results from Lake Geneva

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Abolfazl Irani Rahaghi

Satellite thermal images are frequently used in the study of surface heat exchange dynamics over lakes. Such investigations can depict large-scale thermal patterns with a resolution of O(1 km2), but not meso- or small-scale processes, requiring O(1 m) and ...

A non-stationary stochastic ensemble generator for radar rainfall fields based on the short-space Fourier transform

Nikola Besic, Urs Martin Germann, Daniele Nerini

In this paper we present a non-stationary stochastic generator for radar rainfall fields based on the short-space Fourier transform (SSFT). The statistical properties of rainfall fields often exhibit significant spatial heterogeneity due to variability in ...

Modelling landscape evolution at the flume scale

David Andrew Barry, Andrea Rinaldo, Mohsen Cheraghi

The ability of a large-scale Landscape Evolution Model (LEM) to simulate the soil surface morphological evolution as observed in a laboratory flume (1-m × 2-m surface area) was investigated. The soil surface was initially smooth, and was subjected to heter ...

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 ...

Multifractal evaluation of simulated precipitation intensities from the COSMO NWP model

Alexis Berne, Daniel Wolfensberger

The framework of universal multifractals (UM) characterizes the spatio-temporal variability in geophysical data over a wide range of scales with only a limited number of scale-invariant parameters. This work aims to clarify the link between multifractals ( ...

Fracturing in Dry and Saturated Porous Media

Enrico Milanese

It is now generally recognized that mode I fracturing in saturated geomaterials is a stepwise process. This is true both for mechanical loading and for pressure induced fracturing. Evidence comes from geophysics, from unconventional hydrocarbon extraction, ...

Validation by Measurements of a Windage Losses Model for Very-High-Speed Machines

Yves Perriard, Douglas Martins Araujo, Guillaume Paul-André Burnand

When designing a very-high-speed (VHS) machine, it is crucial to evaluate the windage losses accurately, because they are an important part of the total losses. It is therefore important to validate a reliable model, further used for the design and optimiz ...
