Radar measurements of blowing snow off a mountain ridge

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Josué Etienne Gehring, Benjamin Andreas Walter

Modelling and forecasting wind-driven redistribution of snow in mountainous regions with its implications on avalanche danger, mountain hydrology or flood hazard is still a challenging task often lacking in essential details. Measurements of drifting and b ...

Evaluation of global simulations of aerosol particle and cloud condensation nuclei number, with implications for cloud droplet formation

Athanasios Nenes, Julia Schmale, Yang Yang

A total of 16 global chemistry transport models and general circulation models have participated in this study; 14 models have been evaluated with regard to their ability to reproduce the near-surface observed number concentration of aerosol particles and ...

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

Marcos Rubinstein, Antonio Sunjerga, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Mohammad Azadifar, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Nikola Besic, Jacopo Grazioli, 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 ...

The Microphysics of Stratiform Precipitation During OLYMPEX: Compatibility Between Triple-Frequency Radar and Airborne In Situ Observations

Jussi Sakari Leinonen

The link between stratiform precipitation microphysics and multifrequency radar observables is thoroughly investigated by exploiting simultaneous airborne radar and in situ observations collected from two aircraft during the OLYMPEX/RADEX (Olympic Mountain ...

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 ...

Variations in Snow Crystal Riming and ZDR: A Case Analysis

Alexis Berne, Christophe Praz

A case study in terms of variations in differential reflectivity Z(DR) observed at X band and snow crystal riming is presented for a light-snow event that occurred near Greeley, Colorado, on 26-27 November 2015. In the early portion of the event, Z(DR) val ...

The effect of secondary ice production parameterization on the simulation of a cold frontal rainband

Athanasios Nenes

Secondary ice production via processes like rime splintering, frozen droplet shattering, and breakup upon ice hydrometeor collision have been proposed to explain discrepancies between in-cloud ice crystal and ice-nucleating particle numbers. To understand ...

Upscaling the evolution of snow microstructure : from 4D image analysis to rigorous models

Quirien Eibhilín Krol

Snow microstructure and its evolution play an important role for various applications of snow physics in cryospheric sciences. The main modes of microstructure evolution in snow are referred to as isothermal and temperature gradient metamorphism. The forme ...

Suppressed convective rainfall by agricultural expansion in southeastern Burkina Faso

Marc Parlange, Natalie Claire Ceperley, Gabriel George Katul, Theophile Mande, Scott W. Tyler

With the green economy being promoted as a path to sustainable development and food security within the African continent, the influx of agricultural land is proliferating at a rapid pace often replacing natural savannah forests. Where agriculture is prima ...
