Confirmation of the power gain for solar photovoltaic systems in alpine areas and across scales

Michael Lehning, Yael Frischholz

Introduction: High Alpine regions show a great potential for solar photovoltaic electricity production in winter due to the reflective properties of snow and the larger number of sun hours compared to lower urban and peri-urban regions. In countries with a ...

Seasonal snow-atmosphere modeling: let's do it

Michael Lehning, Dylan Stewart Reynolds, Michael Haugeneder

Mountain snowpack forecasting relies on accurate mass and energy input information in relation to the snowpack. For this reason, coupled snow-atmosphere models, which downscale input fields to the snow model using atmospheric physics, have been developed. ...

Identifying airborne snow metamorphism with stable water isotopes

Michael Lehning, Sonja Wahl

Abstract. Wind-blown snow is a frequent phenomenon in high-elevation and polar regions which impacts the surface energy and mass balance of these areas. Loose surface snow gets eroded and transported by wind, which influences the snow particles' physical p ...

A seasonal snowpack model forced with dynamically downscaled forcing data resolves hydrologically relevant accumulation patterns

Michael Lehning, Dylan Stewart Reynolds, Tobias Jonas

The Mountain snowpack stores months of winter precipitation at high elevations, supplying snowmelt to lowland areas in drier seasons for agriculture and human consumption worldwide. Accurate seasonal predictions of the snowpack are thus of great importance ...

Turbulence in the Strongly Heterogeneous Near-Surface Boundary Layer over Patchy Snow

Michael Lehning, Dylan Stewart Reynolds, Michael Haugeneder

The near-surface boundary layer above patchy snow cover in mountainous terrain is characterized by a highly complex interplay of various flows on multiple scales. In this study, we present data from a comprehensive field campaign that cover a period of 21 ...

Quantifying urban climate response to large-scale forcing modified by local boundary layer effects

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Seyed Mahmood Hamze Ziabari

Over the past two decades, the joint manifestation of global warming and rapid urbanization has significantly increased the occurrence of heatwaves and the formation of urban heat islands in temperate cities. Consequently, this synergy has amplified the fr ...

Profile measurements of snow transport and micrometeorology at Mizuho Station in Antarctica

Michael Lehning, Armin Sigmund, Daniela Brito Melo

This data was collected at Mizuho Station (44.315°E, 70.71°S, 2230 m a.s.l.), East Antarctica, from 30 September to 22 November 2000 during the 41st Japanese Antarctic research expedition. Vertical profiles of the horizontal mass flux and particle number s ...

Superconducting Gravimeter Observations Show That a Satellite-Derived Snow Depth Image Improves the Simulation of the Snow Water Equivalent Evolution in a High Alpine Site

Michael Lehning

The lack of accurate information on the spatiotemporal variations of snow water equivalent (SWE) in mountain catchments remains a key problem in snow hydrology and water resources management. This is partly because there is no sensor to measure SWE beyond ...

Influence of sun cups on surface albedo of wet Alpine snowpack

Michael Lehning, Mathias Thierry Pierre Bavay, Francesca Carletti

In high elevation Alpine areas, characterised by high snow accumulation and radiation-driven melt processes, the formation of peculiar ablation features called sun cups can be observed. Sun cups likely influence the energy and mass balance of the wet snowp ...

Understanding snow saltation parameterizations: lessons from theory, experiments and numerical simulations

Michael Lehning, Armin Sigmund, Daniela Brito Melo

Drifting and blowing snow are important features in polar and high mountain regions. They control the surface mass balance in windy conditions and influence sublimation of snow and ice surfaces. Despite their importance, model representations in weather an ...
