Nonlinear reconstruction of bioclimatic outdoor-environment dynamics for the Lower Silesia region (SW Poland)

Measured meteorological time series are frequently used to obtain information 8 about climate dynamics. We use time series analysis and nonlinear system identification 9 methods in order to assess outdoor-environment bioclimatic conditions starting from th ...

Aerosol absorption over the Aegean Sea under northern summer winds

Athanasios Nenes

In this modelling study, the absorption influence on radiation, apart from scattering, is studied above the Aegean Sea (Eastern Mediterranean) under a typical warm 13-day period with northern winds, transporting polluted air masses. The simulated (WRF-Chem ...

Transitions in the wintertime near-surface temperature inversion at Dome C, Antarctica

Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

In this work we study the dynamics of the surface-based temperature inversion over the Antarctic Plateau during the polar winter. Using 6 years of observations from the French-Italian Antarctic station Concordia at Dome C, we investigate sudden regime tran ...

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 ...

Estimates of the temperature flux-temperature gradient relation above a sea floor

Andrea Cimatoribus

The relation between the flux of temperature (or buoyancy), the vertical temperature gradient and the height above the bottom is investigated in an oceanographic context, using high-resolution temperature measurements. The model for the evolution of a stra ...

A new constituent of electrostatic energy in semiconductors

Jean-Michel Sallese

The concept of electric energy is revisited in detail for semiconductors. We come to the conclusion that the main relationship used to calculate the energy related to the penetration of the electric field in semiconductors is missing a fundamental term. Fo ...

Assessment of Pseudo-Bilayer Structures in the Heterogate Germanium Electron-Hole Bilayer Tunnel Field-Effect Transistor

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Cem Alper, José Luis Padilla de la Torre

We investigate the effect of pseudo-bilayer configurations at low operating voltages (

Buoyant turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) production in katabatic flow despite stable thermal stratification

Marc Parlange, Chad Higgins, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Eric Richard Pardyjak

As micrometeorological research shifts to increasingly non-idealized environments, the lens through which we view classical atmospheric boundary layer theory must also shift to accommodate unfamiliar behavior. We present observations of katabatic flow over ...

A Multiscale Surface Water Temperature Data Acquisition Platform: Tests on Lake Geneva, Switzerland

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Abolfazl Irani Rahaghi

An improved understanding of surface transport processes is necessary to predict sediment, pollutant and phytoplankton patterns in large lakes. Lake surface water temperature (LSWT) which may spatially and temporarily vary over the lake surface reflects me ...

Impact of Asymmetric Configurations on the Heterogate Germanium Electron-Hole Bilayer Tunnel Field-Effect Transistor Including Quantum Confinement

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Cem Alper, José Luis Padilla de la Torre

We investigate the effect of asymmetric configurations on the heterogate germanium electron-hole bilayer tunnel field-effect transistor (HG-EHBTFET) and assess the improvement that they provide in terms of boosting the typically very low ON current levels ...
