[1] During the winters of 1998 and 1999, observations were made of the cascading of cold water from the nearshore, shallow "shelf'' zones and down the sloping sides of Lake Geneva. Cascading starts on the average 10 hours after the onset of surface cooling ...
This paper presents a novel method to predict the outdoor ground surface temperature, which can be useful in the estimation of urban heat islands (UHI) eect. A model is developed based on a multi-layer ground surface energy balance calculated on an hourly ...
In lentic water bodies, such as lakes, the water temperature near the surface typically increases during the day, and decreases during the night as a consequence of the diurnal radiative forcing (solar and infrared radiation). These temperature variations ...
Vidy Bay (Lake Geneva, Switzerland) is the site of a sewage outfall, located 700 meters offshore at a depth of 30 meters. Estimates of water circulation in this area are required to assess the transport and fate of water quality components. Numerical simul ...
Large-eddy simulation, with recently developed dynamic subgrid-scale models, is used to study the effect of heterogeneous surface temperature distributions on regional-scale turbulent fluxes in the stable boundary layer (SBL). Simulations are performed of ...
A new method is proposed to estimate wet surface evaporation by means of measurements of sensible heat flux and of air temperature, relative humidity, and wind speed at one level only. This formulation is made possible by the linearization of the Bowen rat ...
A study of the long-term changes of various climatic extremes was made jointly by a number of European countries. It was found that the changes in maximum and minimum temperatures follow, in broad terms, the corresponding well-documented mean temperature c ...
High spatial and temporal resolution water temperature measurements, using DTS, allow to model and to control stream temperature evolution in the Tambarga’s basin (Burkina Faso). A wireless sensor network recorded solar radiation, air temperature, air humi ...
