Modeling the small-scale deposition of snow onto structured Arctic sea ice during a MOSAiC storm using snowBedFoam 1.0.

Michael Lehning, Mahdi Jafari, Océane Hames, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, David Nicholas Wagner

The remoteness and extreme conditions of the Arctic make it a very difficult environment to investigate. In these polar regions covered by sea ice, the wind is relatively strong due to the absence of obstructions and redistributes a large part of the depos ...

COPERNICUS GESELLSCHAFT MBH2022

Global anthropogenic and legacy mercury (Hg) emissions are the main sources of Arctic Hg contamination, primarily transported there via the atmosphere. This review summarizes the state of knowledge of the global anthropogenic sources of Hg emissions, and e ...

Snowfall and snow accumulation during the MOSAiC winter and spring seasons

Michael Lehning, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, David Nicholas Wagner, Markus Frey, Marc Oggier

Data from the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) expedition allowed us to investigate the temporal dynamics of snowfall, snow accumulation and erosion in great detail for almost the whole accumulation season (No ...

Water vapor transport in snowpacks

Mahdi Jafari

This thesis is an in-depth treatment of water vapor transport in snowpacks and its impacts on snow structure. The aim is to better understand this transport process and to lay the basis for a model representation in physics-based multi-layer snow models. O ...

Exploring alternative possibilities for sublimation measurements over snow and ice surfaces

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Franziska Gerber, Armin Sigmund

Sublimation of snow is a major depletion mechanism, particularly in dry and windy environments such as high mountains or polar regions. Yet the quantification of the latent heat flux is a difficult task, and both measurements and estimates from models stil ...

This paper studies numerically the convection of water vapour in snowpacks using an Eulerian-Eulerian two-phase approach. The convective water vapour transport in snow and its effects on snow density are often invoked to explain observed density profiles, ...

Measurements of Atmospheric Variability during the Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC) Expedition

Julia Schmale

The MOSAiC expedition was designed to better understand the local and remote processes influencing the Arctic climate system. The Arctic is warming two to three times faster than the global average, a process known as Arctic amplification. One of the most ...

This report presents past observations and projects the future development of water temperature in Swiss lakes and rivers. Projections are made until the end of the 21st century using the CH2018 climate scenarios. Besides climate change effects on temperat ...

Small-scale surface roughness (on an area of about 0.5 m x 0.5 m) affects remote sensing retrieval algorithms and radiative transfer models, yet data of snow and ice surface roughness over sea ice is scarce. Microwave emissivity, important for satellite re ...

Automated identification of local contamination in an Arctic aerosol time series

Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada

A common challenge of Atmospheric measurements in remote environments is to identify local pollution from nearby sources. During the MOSAiC (Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate) expedition, we measured aerosol and gaseous ...
