Radar measurements of blowing snow off a mountain ridge

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Josué Etienne Gehring, Benjamin Andreas Walter

Modelling and forecasting wind-driven redistribution of snow in mountainous regions with its implications on avalanche danger, mountain hydrology or flood hazard is still a challenging task often lacking in essential details. Measurements of drifting and b ...

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 ...

The Importance of Near-Surface Winter Precipitation Processes in Complex Alpine Terrain

Michael Lehning, Franziska Gerber

In this study, near-surface snow and graupel dynamics from formation to deposition are analyzed using WRF in a large-eddy configuration. The results reveal that a horizontal grid spacing of ≤50 m is required to resolve local orographic precipitation enhanc ...

Analysis of the lightning production of convective cells

Marcos Rubinstein, Antonio Sunjerga, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Mohammad Azadifar, Amirhossein Mostajabi, Jacopo Grazioli, Nikola Besic, Urs Martin Germann

This paper presents an analysis of the lightningproduction of convective cells. The cells were detected by the MeteoSwiss Thunderstorms Radar Tracking (TRT) algorithm in the course of a lightning measurement campaign thattook place in the summer of 2017 in ...

The vertical structure of precipitation at two stations in East Antarctica derived from micro rain radars

Alexis Berne, Jacopo Grazioli

Precipitation over Antarctica is the main term in the surface mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet, which is crucial for the future evolution of the sea level worldwide. Precipitation, however, remains poorly documented and understood mainly because of ...

Variations in Snow Crystal Riming and ZDR: A Case Analysis

Alexis Berne, Christophe Praz

A case study in terms of variations in differential reflectivity Z(DR) observed at X band and snow crystal riming is presented for a light-snow event that occurred near Greeley, Colorado, on 26-27 November 2015. In the early portion of the event, Z(DR) val ...

From the clouds to the ground - Effects of flow-precipitation interactions on snow distribution in complex alpine terrain

Franziska Gerber

Knowledge about the spatial distribution of seasonal snow is essential e.g. to efficiently manage fresh water resources or for hydro-power companies. The large-scale gradient of snow accumulation over mountain ranges is mainly determined by lifting condens ...
