High concentration of black carbon in northern Pakistan: Characteristics, source apportionment and emission source regions

Atmospheric Black Carbon (BC) is one of the absorbing components of solar radiation which potentially affects human health and regional climate. In the current study, BC mass concentrations were regularly observed for pre-monsoon and monsoon seasons using ...

Future trends in wind resources and their consistency in the Indian sub-continent

Michael Lehning, Yasmine Zakari, Adrien Michel

We use the latest Coordinated Regional Dynamical Experiment regional climate models over South Asia at 0.22 degrees grid spacing (WAS-22) under two Representative Concentration Pathways scenarios (RCP 2.6 and RCP 8.5) to evaluate their performance against ...

Aerosol absorption over the Aegean Sea under northern summer winds

Athanasios Nenes

In this modelling study, the absorption influence on radiation, apart from scattering, is studied above the Aegean Sea (Eastern Mediterranean) under a typical warm 13-day period with northern winds, transporting polluted air masses. The simulated (WRF-Chem ...

Single Image Deraining Using Time-Lapse Data

Seungryong Kim

Leveraging on recent advances in deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs), single image deraining has been studied as a learning task, achieving an outstanding performance over traditional hand-designed approaches. Current CNNs based deraining approaches ...

Sensitivity of simulated summer monsoonal precipitation in Langtang Valley, Himalaya, to cloud microphysics schemes in WRF

Margaux Caroline Patricia Couttet

A better understanding of regional-scale precipitation patterns in the Himalayan region is required to increase our knowledge of the impacts of climate change on downstream water availability. This study examines the impact of four cloud microphysical sche ...

The influence of atmospheric circulation on the mid-Holocene climate of Europe: a data-model comparison

Jed Oliver Kaplan, Basil Andrew Stansfield Davis, Pamela Collins, Achille Mauri

The atmospheric circulation is a key area of uncertainty in climate model simulations of future climate change, especially in mid-latitude regions such as Europe where atmospheric dynamics have a significant role in climate variability. It has been propose ...

Modelling wind-driven rain on buildings in urbanized area using 3-D GIS and LiDAR datasets

Luca Rossi, François Golay, Sylvain Coutu, Claudio Magalhaes Carneiro, Pauline Emery, Vera Wyrsch

This study investigated the distribution of the fraction of rainfall intercepted by the facades of buildings located in an urbanized area. We used the frequently used semi-empirical standard ISO-15927-3 to simulate Wind-Driven Rain on facades. The implemen ...

Mid- to late Holocene climate change- an overview

Jed Oliver Kaplan, Stefan Müller

The last 6000 years are of particular interest to the understanding of the Earth System because the boundary conditions of the climate system did not change dramatically (in comparison to larger glacial–interglacial changes), and because abundant, detailed ...

Aerosol vertical distribution in dust outflow over the Atlantic: Comparisons between Global Earth Observing System (GEOS)-Chem and Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO)

Isabelle Bey, Sylvia Generoso

Vertically-resolved attenuated backscatter from the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) mission and Aerosol Optical Thickness (AOT)from Moderate-resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) are used to characterize t ...

Long-range transport of pollution to Europe : origins, chemical and transport pathways, and impact on tropospheric composition

Marion Auvray

Ozone (O3) and aerosols are harmful to human health. Long-range transport sources contribute to the background levels upon which local pollution builds. The goal of this thesis is to describe and quantify the respective contribution of local and long-range ...
