Nowcasting of High-Intensity Rainfall for Urban Applications in the Netherlands

Radar rainfall nowcasting has mostly been applied to relatively large (often rural) domains (e.g., river basins), although rainfall nowcasting in small urban areas is expected to be more challenging. Here, we selected 80 events with high rainfall intensiti ...

Network time series forecasting in photovoltaics power production

Jelena Simeunovic

Accurate forecasting of photovoltaic (PV) power production is crucial for the integration of more renewable energy sources into the power grid. PV power production is highly intermittent, due to the stochastic cloud behaviour and cloud dynamics. Previous w ...

Considering snow depositions and transport mechanisms in meteorological analysis of predicting snow loads on buildings

Michael Lehning, Borui Zhang, Qingwen Zhang

The meteorological conditions determine snow evolutions on and around buildings. Those climatic impacts have been independently considered in the current design codes of buildings, namely the wind pressure and the snow load. But snow load estimates are onl ...

Interpretable temporal-spatial graph attention network for multi-site PV power forecasting

Pascal Frossard, Rafael Eduardo Carrillo Rangel, Pierre-Jean Alet, Baptiste Schubnel, Jelena Simeunovic

Accurate forecasting of photovoltaic (PV) and wind production is crucial for the integration of more renewable energy sources into the power grid. To address the limited resolution and costs of methods based on numerical weather predictions (NWP), we take ...

Development of a Semi-distributed Hydrological Model for Glaciated Punatshangchu Basin in Bhutan

Giovanni De Cesare, Pedro Filipe De Almeida Manso, Jessica Zordan, Vasker Sharma

Hydropower plays a pivotal role in the socio-economic development of Bhutan where water resource is abundantly available and therefore several hydropower plants are being planned and a few under construction. However, with the presence of several potential ...

Radar-rain gauge merging and discharge data assimilation for flood forecasting in Alpine catchments

Alain Tommy Foehn

Floods are responsible for one third of the economic losses induced by natural hazards throughout the world. To better protect the population and infrastructures, flood forecasting systems make us of weather forecasts to foresee floods several days in adva ...

Set-up and configuraion of an ensemble Kalman filter for an operational flood forecasting system

Giovanni De Cesare, Alain Tommy Foehn, Anne Schwob

To forecast riverine floods, short-range forecasts are normally provided. In such cases the initial hydrological conditions highly influence the predictability of a flood event. The study evaluates the potential of an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) for the ...

Integrated field, laboratory, and theoretical study of PKD spread in a Swiss prealpine river

Andrea Rinaldo, Enrico Bertuzzo, Lorenzo Mari, Luca Carraro, Marino Gatto

Proliferative kidney disease (PKD) is a major threat to wild and farmed salmonid populations because of its lethal effect at high water temperatures. Its causative agent, the myxozoan Tetracapsuloides bryosalmonae, has a complex lifecycle exploiting freshw ...

Numerical Modeling of Tube Forming by HPTR Cold Pilgering Process

Roland Logé

For new fast-neutron sodium-cooled Generation IV nuclear reactors, the candidate cladding materials for the very strong burn-up are ferritic and martensitic oxide dispersion strengthened grades. Classically, the cladding tube is cold formed by a sequence o ...

A radar-based regional extreme rainfall analysis to derive the thresholds for a novel automatic alert system in Switzerland

Alexis Berne, Marco Gabella, Urs Martin Germann, Luca Panziera

This paper presents a regional extreme rainfall analysis based on 10 years of radar data for the 159 regions adopted for official natural hazard warnings in Switzerland. Moreover, a nowcasting tool aimed at issuing heavy precipitation regional alerts is in ...
