MoMuCAMS – A newly developed Helikite-based modular platform for aerosol and trace gas vertical measurements

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini, Roman Pohorsky

MoMuCAMS (Modular, Multiplatform-Compatible Air Measurement System) is a newly developed system for aerosol and trace gas measurements in the lower atmosphere, which offers possibilities for detailed analysis at the interface of the boundary layer and free ...

Statistical methods for accounting and understanding ozone trends derived from observations

Eirini Boleti

Emissions of ozone precursors have been regulated in Europe since around 1990 with air quality control measures, which resulted in reductions of nitrogen oxides and volatile organic compounds concentrations. In order to understand how these measures have a ...

Trends of surface maximum ozone concentrations in Switzerland based on meteorological adjustment for the period 1990-2014

Satoshi Takahama, Eirini Boleti, Christoph Hueglin

We investigate the temporal trends of peak ozone in Switzerland for the 1990-2014 time period. The meteorological conditions have a large influence on ozone formation and drive a large part of the variability in ozone observations. Therefore, the influence ...

Meteorological Aspects of Self-Initiated Upward Lightning at the Santis Tower (Switzerland)

Marcos Rubinstein, Mohammad Azadifar, Antonio Sunjerga, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Jacopo Grazioli, Nikola Besic, Urs Martin Germann

Interest in exploring the meteorological conditions favoring upward lightning from tall man-made structures has grown in recent years, largely due to the worldwide expansion of wind energy. To this end, instrumented towers existing around the world are the ...

A severe hail storm in complex topography in Switzerland - Observations and processes

Nikola Besic, Urs Martin Germann

This paper studies a damaging hail storm that occurred on 6 June 2015 in the complex topography of Switzerland. The storm persisted for several hours and produced large hail resulting in significant damage. Storms of comparable severity occur on average on ...
