Mechanical energy budget and mixing efficiency for a radiatively heated ice-covered waterbody

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard, Hugo Nicolás Ulloa Sánchez

Ice-covered waterbodies are far from being quiescent systems. In this paper, we investigate ice-covered freshwater basins heated by solar radiation that penetrates across waters with temperatures below or near the temperature of maximum density. In this sc ...

Physical effects of thermal pollution in lakes

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard

Anthropogenic heat emissions into inland waters influence water temperature and affect stratification, heat and nutrient fluxes, deep water renewal, and biota. Given the increased thermal stress on these systems by growing cooling demands of riparian/coast ...

Negative elevation-dependent warming trend in the Eastern Alps

Mountain regions and the important ecosystem services they provide are considered to be very vulnerable to the current warming, and recent studies suggest that high-mountain environments experience more rapid changes in temperature than environments at low ...

Impact of nuclear produced thermal pollution on a lake with short residence time - what can models resolve?

Alfred Johny Wüest, Damien Bouffard

Introduction-Thermal pollution can have considerable influence on water temperature in freshwater systems notably affecting stratification [Kirillin et al., 2013]. Consequences can be seen across the entire aquatic food web [Barnett, 1971; Cairns, 1971; Sy ...

Impact of nuclear produced thermal pollution on a lake with short residence time - what can models resolve?

Thermal pollution can have considerable influence on water temperature in freshwater systems notably affecting stratification (Kirillin et al., 2013). Consequences can be seen across the entire aquatic food web including benthic organisms (Barnett, 1971), ...

Thermal microsensors for in vitro and in vivo monitoring of chemical and biological processes

Rima Padovani

Metabolism is a highly coordinated biochemical cellular activity indispensable for sustaining life, and is often related to mitochondrial functioning. Innovative technological approaches allowing the study of the thermal signature of chemical and metabolic ...

Thermal Transport in Crystals as a Kinetic Theory of Relaxons

Nicola Marzari, Andrea Cepellotti

Thermal conductivity in dielectric crystals is the result of the relaxation of lattice vibrations described by the phonon Boltzmann transport equation. Remarkably, an exact microscopic definition of the heat carriers and their relaxation times is still mis ...

Thermal transport in low dimensions

Andrea Cepellotti

Lattice vibrations are the microscopic mechanism responsible for a large, if not dominant, contribution to heat transport in crystalline insulators. These vibrations are described in terms of phonons, collective excitations (or quasiparticles) in the form ...

Spatial estimates of snow water equivalent from reconstruction

Annelen Kahl

Operational ground-based measurements of snow water equivalent (SWE) do not adequately explain spatial variability in mountainous terrain. To address this problem, we combine satellite-based retrievals of fractional snow cover for the period 2000 to 2011 w ...
