Power laws relating the different radar observables (from conventional or polarimetric radar systems) are commonly used in the processing of radar measurements (e.g., attenuation correction) and in their conversion into rain rate values (e.g., Z-R relation ...
An X-band polarimetric radar was deployed in the Eastern Swiss Alps at an altitude of 2133 m. Radar measurements were complemented with several weather stations deployed in an altitude range from 1500 to 3100 m as well as with a fixed GPS ground station pr ...
A case study of an intense convective event occurring in the Swiss Alps (Davos) is presented. Polarimetric X-band observations of this event showed an unusual strong signature in terms of differential reflectivity Zdr, differential phase shift on backscatt ...

In mountains the snow cover is heterogeneously distributed in space and time. The spatial and temporal variability of the Alpine snow cover has a major influence on avalanche danger, snow hydrology, mountain ecology and winter tourism. In winter, already d ...
A mobile X-band dual-polarization Doppler radar (MXPOL), belonging to the Environmental Remote Sensing Laboratory (LTE) of EPFL (Lausanne) was deployed in Davos (Switzerland) at an altitude of 213 m from September 2009 to July 2011, in order to observe and ...
