Scaling Precipitation Input to Spatially Distributed Hydrological Models by Measured Snow Distribution

Michael Lehning, Nander Wever, Mathias Thierry Pierre Bavay

Accurate knowledge on snow distribution in alpine terrain is crucial for various applications such as flood risk assessment, avalanche warning or managing water supply and hydro-power. To simulate the seasonal snow cover development in alpine terrain, the ...

Snow Avalanches.

Christophe Ancey

Avalanches have long been a natural threat to humans in mountainous areas. At the end of the Middle Ages, the population in Europe experienced significant growth, leading to an intensive exploitation of upper valleys. At almost the same time, Europe’s clim ...

Simulations of 21st century snow response to climate change in Switzerland from a set of RCMs

Michael Lehning, Charles Fierz

Twenty-first century snow depth and snow water equivalent (SWE) changes are assessed for three time periods (2020-2049, 2045-2079 and 2070-2099) at 11 stations in Switzerland with the physics-based snow model SNOWPACK and meteorological input data perturbe ...

Wiley-Blackwell2015

Identification of snow precipitation mechanisms and accumulation patterns over complex terrain with very high resolution radar data and terrestrial laser scans

Michael Lehning, Alexis Berne, Jacopo Grazioli, Franziska Gerber, Daniel Wolfensberger

Knowledge on changes in seasonal mountain snow water resources are essential e.g. for hydropower companies. Both, snow accumulation and ablation need to be investigated to make precise predictions of water stored in a seasonal snow cover. Only if the proce ...

Climate responsive strategies of traditional dwellings located in an ancient village in hot summer and cold winter region of China

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Vahid Moussavi Nik, Shaoqing Gou, Qun Zhao

Global warming and energy shortage have aroused a great interest in climate responsive strategies of vernacular dwellings during recent years. This study focuses on a qualitative analysis of ancient dwellings located in the village of Xinye, in the hot sum ...

Verification of the multi-layer SNOWPACK model with different water transport schemes

Michael Lehning, Nander Wever, Charles Fierz

The widely used detailed SNOWPACK model has undergone constant development over the years. A notable recent extension is the introduction of a Richards equation (RE) solver as an alternative for the bucket-type approach for describing water transport in th ...

Do peatlands hibernate?

Alexandre Buttler, Vincent Eric Jules Jassey, Constant Signarbieux, Robert Thomas Edmund Mills

Winter seasonality with low amounts of incoming radiation, frost and snow cover characterize large areas at mid- and high latitudes, especially in the arctic and in mountain ranges. Because of these adverse conditions, it is often assumed that ecosystem pr ...

Seasonal small-scale spatial variability in alpine snowfall and snow accumulation

Michael Lehning, Alexis Berne, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, Danny Eddy Scipion Castillo

[1] In mountainous regions, snow accumulation on the ground is crucial for mountain hydrology and water resources. The present study investigates the link between the spatial variability in snowfall and in snow accumulation in the Swiss Alps. A mobile pola ...

American Geophysical Union2013

A comparison between two statistical and a physically-based model in snow water equivalent mapping

Michael Lehning, Mathias Thierry Pierre Bavay, Tobias Jonas

Snow water equivalent (SWE) estimates at the end of the winter season have been compared for the 2002–2006 period in a 200 km2 mountainous area in Switzerland, using three different models. The first model, ALPINE3D, is a physically based process-oriented ...
