Measurement and analysis of aerosols, cirrus-contrails, water vapor and temperature in the upper troposphere with the Jungfraujoch LIDAR system
The impact of human activities on the global climate may lead to large disruptions of the economic, social and political status quo in the middle and long term. Understanding the dynamics of the Earth's climate is thus of paramount importance and one of th ...
EPFL2004Aerosol lidar intercomparison in the framework of the EARLINET project. 1. Instruments
In the framework of the European Aerosol Research Lidar Network to Establish an Aerosol Climatology (EARLINET), 19 aerosol lidar systems from 11 European countries were compared. Aerosol extinction or backscatter coefficient profiles were measured by at le ...
2004Ground-based water vapour soundings by microwave radiometry and Raman lidar on Jungfraujoch (Swiss Alps)
Hubert van den Bergh, Bertrand Calpini, Valentin Simeonov, Ioan Balin
Water vapour has been measured from the International Scientific Station Jungfraujoch (ISSJ, 47° N, 7° E, 3580 in above sea level) during the winters of 1999/2000 and 2000/2001 by microwave radiometry and Raman lidar. The abundance of atmospheric water vap ...
Copernicus Publications2004Elevated atmospheric boundary layer over the Swiss Alps during the August 2003 heat wave
Hubert van den Bergh, Bertrand Calpini, Valentin Simeonov, Marc Parlange, Ioan Balin
An unusual elevated atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) at altitudes of Lip to 5000 m was observed, using a combination of elastic and water vapor lidars, during a 10-day period in 2003. There was a persistent stationary anticyclonic regime over Western Europ ...

In a previous publication [Appl. Opt. 43, 961 (2004)], One of the figures on page 973 was presented inaccurately, as was the surname of the first author. These inaccuracies are corrected here. (C) 2004 Optical Society of America ...
2004An investigation of ozone and planetary boundary layer dynamics over the complex topography of Grenoble combining measurements and modeling
Hubert van den Bergh, Bertrand Calpini, Valentin Simeonov, Ioan Balin, Olivier Couach, Pablo Roberto Ristori
This paper concerns an evaluation of ozone (O-3) and planetary boundary layer (PBL) dynamics over the complex topography of the Grenoble region through a combination of measurements and mesoscale model (METPHOMOD) predictions for three days, during July 19 ...
Copernicus Publications2003Study of a photochemical episode over the Grenoble area using a mesoscale model and intensive measurements
