This master thesis provides an extended study of winter precipitations in Valais (Switzerland). It was rst tried to relate local conditions in Valais, as measured at gauges, to the Hess-Brezowski classication for Europe. It was not possible to clearly rela ...
In this paper, we introduce an evolving system utilizing sparse weighted kernel least square as local models and online Gustafson-Kessel clustering algorithm for structure identification. Our proposed online clustering algorithm forms elliptical clusters w ...
A research team at the Georgia Institute of Technology has developed a new way to help meet air quality standards that might reduce the costs of meeting the new ozone rule. Called APOM (Air Pollution Optimization Model), the method targets high-impact time ...
The effects of future land use and land cover change on the chemical composition of the atmosphere and air quality are largely unknown. To investigate the potential effects associated with future changes in vegetation driven by atmospheric CO2 concentratio ...
Clustering algorithms have evolved to handle more and more complex structures. However, measures allowing to qualify the quality of such partitions are rare and only specic to certain algorithms. In this work, we propose a new cluster validity measure (CVM ...
We use statistical models for mean and extreme values of total column ozone to analyze "fingerprints" of atmospheric dynamics and chemistry on long-term ozone changes at northern and southern mid-latitudes on grid cell basis. At each grid cell, the r-large ...
The kinetics of oxidation and disinfection processes during ozonation in a full-scale reactor treating secondary wastewater effluent were investigated for seven ozone doses ranging from 0.21 to 1.24 g O-3 g(-1) dissolved organic carbon (DOG). Substances re ...
We present the first spatial analysis of "fingerprints" of the El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and atmospheric aerosol load after major volcanic eruptions (El Chichon and Mt. Pinatubo) in extreme low and high (termed ELOs and EHOs, respectively) and me ...
We apply methods from extreme value theory to identify extreme events in high (termed EHOs) and low (termed ELOs) total ozone and to describe the distribution tails (i.e. very high and very low values) of five long-term European ground-based total ozone ti ...
A non-thermal plasma rector with a catalytic electrode made of sintered metal fibres (SMFs) was tested for the oxidative decomposition of a model VOC toluene. The input energy was varied in the range 160-295 J/I by varying the applied voltage between 12.5 ...
