Simulation of long-term spatiotemporal variations in regional-scale groundwater recharge: contributions of a water budget approach in cold and humid climates

Groundwater recharge (GWR) is a strategic hydrologic variable, and its estimate is necessary to implement sustainable groundwater management. This is especially true in a global warming context that highly impacts key winter conditions in cold and humid cl ...

LMDZ6A: The Atmospheric Component of the IPSL Climate Model With Improved and Better Tuned Physics

Etienne Gabriel Henri Vignon

This study presents the version of the LMDZ global atmospheric model used as the atmospheric component of the Institut Pierre Simon Laplace coupled model (IPSL-CM6A-LR) to contribute to the 6th phase of the international Coupled Model Intercomparison Proje ...

Effects of regional and local atmospheric dynamics on the aerosol and CCN load over Athens

Athanasios Nenes

Aerosol and cloud condensate nuclei (CCN) measurements in the area of Athens during HyGRA-CD campaign (May–June 2014) identified a significant diversity in particle properties. In this study we select two distinct cases in terms of meteorology and air mass ...

Collocated observations of cloud condensation nuclei, particle size distributions, and chemical composition

Athanasios Nenes, Julia Schmale, Ghislain Gilles Jean-Michel Motos

Cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) number concentrations alongside with submicrometer particle number size distributions and particle chemical composition have been measured at atmospheric observatories of the Aerosols, Clouds, and Trace gases Research InfraS ...

Effect of deflector aerator on stepped spillway flow

Anton Schleiss, Michael Pfister, Stéphane Christian Olivier Terrier

Systematic physical model tests are performed on a stepped spillway equipped with a bottom aerator at the beginning of the stepped part. A deflector is used to issue a jet in order to initiate air entrainment into the flow. A horizontal slot located in the ...

Suppressed convective rainfall by agricultural expansion in southeastern Burkina Faso

Marc Parlange, Gabriel George Katul, Natalie Claire Ceperley, 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 ...

Numerical simulation of AM1 microstructure

Alain Jacot, Charles-André Gandin, Luc Rougier, Paolo Di Napoli

A modelling approach is developed for the description of microstructure formation in the industrial AM1 Ni-base superalloy. Solidification and homogenization simulations are first carried out using a microsegregation model, before using the local compositi ...

The response of atmospheric nitrous oxide to climate variations during the last glacial period

Jérôme Chappellaz

Two deep ice cores from central Greenland, drilled in the 1990s, have played a key role in climate reconstructions of the Northern Hemisphere, but the oldest sections of the cores were disturbed in chronology owing to ice folding near the bedrock. Here we ...

On the relationship between total ozone and atmospheric dynamics and chemistry at mid-latitudes - Part 2: The effects of the El Nino/Southern Oscillation, volcanic eruptions and contributions of atmospheric dynamics and chemistry to long-term total ozone changes

Anthony Christopher Davison, Linda Frossard

We present the first spatial analysis of "fingerprints" of the El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and atmospheric aerosol load after major volcanic eruptions (El Chichon and Mt. Pinatubo) in extreme low and high (termed ELOs and EHOs, respectively) and me ...

Experiments and numerical modeling of baffle configuration effects on the performance of sedimentation tanks

David Andrew Barry, Roham Bakhtyar, Amir Mehdi Razmi

The hydraulic efficiency of sedimentation basins is reduced by short-circuiting, circulation zones and bottom particle-laden jets. Baffles are used to improve sediment tank performance. In this study, laboratory experiments were used to examine the hydrody ...
