Modeling Macroroughness Contribution to Fish Habitat Suitability Curves

Paolo Perona, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Amin Niayifar

Improved water management strategies necessitate a solid understanding of environmental impacts associated with various flow release policies. Habitat suitability models use hydrodynamic simulations to generate weighted usable area curves, which are useful ...

Adapting tilt corrections and the governing flow equations for steep, fully three-dimensional, mountainous terrain

Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Marc Parlange, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Eric Richard Pardyjak

In recent studies of atmospheric turbulent surface exchange in complex terrain, questions arise concerning velocity-sensor tilt corrections and the governing flow equations for coordinate systems aligned with steep slopes. The standard planar-fit method, a ...

Counter-Gradient, Co-Gradient and ‘Surface-Layer' Momentum Fluxes in Nocturnal Slope Flows over Steep Alpine Terrain

Marc Parlange, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Eric Richard Pardyjak

Generally, the more an underlying terrain deviates from being flat, uniform and homogeneous, the less that classical theories and models of the atmospheric boundary layer hold. At times this leads to high uncertainties in turbulent flux predictions, and at ...

Buoyant turbulence kinetic energy (TKE) production in katabatic flow despite stable thermal stratification

Marc Parlange, Chad Higgins, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Eric Richard Pardyjak

As micrometeorological research shifts to increasingly non-idealized environments, the lens through which we view classical atmospheric boundary layer theory must also shift to accommodate unfamiliar behavior. We present observations of katabatic flow over ...

Controls on the diurnal streamflow cycles in two subbasins of an alpine headwater catchment

Marc Parlange, Steven Vincent Weijs, Marc Calaf Bracons, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Raphaël Mutzner

In high-altitude alpine catchments, diurnal streamflow cycles are typically dominated by snowmelt or ice melt. Evapotranspiration-induced diurnal streamflow cycles are less observed in these catchments but might happen simultaneously. During a field campai ...

Momentum balance of katabatic flow on steep slopes covered with short vegetation

Marc Parlange, Gabriel George Katul, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Eric Richard Pardyjak

Katabatic flows over alpine mountainous terrain differ from their forested or bare slope counterparts due to the presence of well-ventilated, short vegetation. The impact of a grass canopy and larger-scale pressure perturbations on the one-dimensional mean ...

Controls on diurnal streamflow cycles in a high altitude catchment in the Swiss Alps

Marc Parlange, Steven Vincent Weijs, Marc Calaf Bracons, Holly Jayne Oldroyd, Raphaël Mutzner

We study the diurnal streamflow cycles in a high altitude catchment where a large field campaign has been undertaken. In one monitored sub-basin, the cycle is evapotranspiration-dominated, in another, the cycle is icemelt-dominated. The two processes happe ...
