Reducing transport via extreme flux-surface triangularity
Stefano Coda, Justin Richard Ball
Based on a gyrokinetic analysis of and extrapolation from TCV discharges with large negative and positive triangularity delta, the potential of extreme | delta | in reducing turbulent transport is assessed. Linearly, both positive and negative delta can ex ...
Iop Publishing Ltd2024Combined Earth observations reveal the sequence of conditions leading to a large algal bloom in Lake Geneva
Damien Bouffard, Abolfazl Irani Rahaghi, Oscar Rodrigo Sepúlveda Steiner, Rafael Sebastian Reiss, Marco Toffolon, Frédéric Charles Soulignac
Freshwater algae exhibit complex dynamics, particularly in meso-oligotrophic lakes with sudden and dramatic increases in algal biomass following long periods of low background concentration. While the fundamental prerequisites for algal blooms, namely ligh ...
Springernature2024Snow transport in extreme environments: from small to large scale modeling
The cold regions on Earth, such as the polar and high mountain regions, are snow covered for at least a part of the year. These snow-covered surfaces are highly dynamic, particularly under the influence of strong winds. The aeolian or wind-driven transport ...
EPFL2023Dynamics of wind-induced coastal upwelling and interbasin exchange in Lake Geneva during winter: Implications for deepwater renewal
Water quality in lakes is closely linked to hydrodynamics and often dominated by stratification, limiting the exchange between the epi- and hypolimnion. Thus, the vertical redistribution of biogeochemical tracers such as dissolved oxygen and nutrients by c ...
EPFL2021The role of air-sea fluxes for the water vapour isotope signals in the cold and warm sectors of extratropical cyclones over the Southern Ocean
Josué Etienne Gehring, Irina Gorodetskaya
Meridional atmospheric transport is an important process in the climate system and has implications for the availability of heat and moisture at high latitudes. Near-surface cold and warm temperature advection over the ocean in the context of extratropical ...
Gottingen2021Net ecosystem production of lakes estimated from hypolimnetic organic carbon sinks
This study presents a novel concept for estimating net ecosystem production (NEP), the export of organic carbon (OC) from the productive surface layer to the deep‐water (hypolimnion) of eleven seasonally stratified lakes, varying in depth and trophic state ...
