Ice Cover and Extreme Events Determine Dissolved Oxygen in a Placid Mountain Lake

Sebastiano Piccolroaz

A decrease in hypolimnetic dissolved oxygen (DO) is a commonly seen effect of climate change. However, in oligotrophic Lake Tovel (Italy), a deep mountain lake, annual mean DO (% saturation) has increased from near anoxia to >20% in the bottom layer (35–39 ...

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 ...

Theoretical and numerical studies of atmospheric boundary-layer flows over complex terrain

Marco Giovanni Giometto

Atmospheric boundary-layer (ABL) flows over complex terrain have been the focus of active research, given their impact on weather and climate variability. Surface complexity is understood in a broad sense and includes variation in roughness properties, inc ...

A new wind-farm parameterization for large-scale atmospheric models

Fernando Porté Agel, Mahdi Abkar

In this article, a new model is developed to parameterize the effect of wind farms in large-scale atmospheric models such as weather models. In the new model, wind turbines in a wind farm are parameterized as elevated sinks of momentum and sources of turbu ...

Momentum balance of katabatic flow on steep slopes covered with short vegetation

Marc Parlange, Gabriel George Katul, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Eric Richard Pardyjak

Katabatic flows over alpine mountainous terrain differ from their forested or bare slope counterparts due to the presence of well-ventilated, short vegetation. The impact of a grass canopy and larger-scale pressure perturbations on the one-dimensional mean ...

Parameterization of cloud droplet formation for global and regional models: Including adsorption activation from insoluble CCN

Athanasios Nenes

Dust and black carbon aerosol have long been known to exert potentially important and diverse impacts on cloud droplet formation. Most studies to date focus on the soluble fraction of these particles, and overlook interactions of the insoluble fraction wit ...

Simulation of atmospheric flows over complex terrain for wind power potential assessment

When assessing the economic viability of a wind farm, the estimation of the on-site wind power potential is perhaps the most important step. The most common way of evaluating the wind power potential of an area of interest consists of making on-site measur ...

Performances et limites de chaudières à gaz de centrales solaires

Production of electricity from solar energy is mainly achieved by means of solar cells or by central receiver power plants. These plants are driven by vapor turbines where the fluid temperature is about l000°F or by gas turbines in which gas temperature ex ...
