Towards a fully physical representation of snow on Arctic sea ice using a 3D snow-atmosphere model

Michael Lehning, Adrien Michel, Mahdi Jafari, Océane Hames, Nander Wever, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, David Nicholas Wagner

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 ...

Flow and Snow in Complex Terrain: across-scale modelling for a correct surface mass balance

Varun Sharma, Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Jérôme François Sylvain Dujardin, Franziska Gerber, Daniela Brito Melo, Nander Wever, Armin Sigmund, David Nicholas Wagner

Preferential deposition of snow precipitation, snow transport and snow sublimation modify the mass which gets incorporated into or removed from the seasonal or perennial snow cover. These processes happen at very small scales from snow grain size to larger ...

Future water temperature of rivers in Switzerland under climate change investigated with physics-based models

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Adrien Michel, Bettina Schaefli, Nander Wever

River ecosystems are highly sensitive to cli-mate change and projected future increase in air tempera-ture is expected to increase the stress for these ecosystems. Rivers are also an important socio-economic factor impact- ing, amongst others, agriculture, ...

The Impact of Diffusive Water Vapor Transport on Snow Profiles in Deep and Shallow Snow Covers and on Sea Ice

Varun Sharma, Michael Lehning, Adrien Michel, Mahdi Jafari, Nander Wever, Isabelle Amandine Gouttevin, Margaux Caroline Patricia Couttet

Water vapor transport has been highlighted as a critical process in Arctic snowpacks, shaping the snow cover structure in terms of density, thermal conductivity, and temperature profile among others. Here, we present an attempt to describe the thermally-in ...

Version 1 of a sea ice module for the physics-based, detailed, multi-layer SNOWPACK model

Michael Lehning, Katherine Colby Leonard, Nander Wever

Sea ice is an important component of the global climate system. The presence of a snowpack covering sea ice can strongly modify the thermodynamic behavior of the sea ice, due to the low thermal conductivity and high albedo of snow. The snowpack can be stra ...

Detailed simulations of spatial snow accumulation patterns and near surface snow properties in Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica

Michael Lehning, Wolf Hendrik Huwald, Nander Wever

Snow accumulation is an important component of Antarctic Ice Sheet Surface Mass Balance (SMB). However, accumulation rates are generally low, and snow redistribution by wind is not only common, but also of the same order of magnitude as precipitation. This ...

Investigation of a wind-packing event in Queen Maud Land, Antarctica

Michael Lehning, Nander Wever, Christian Gabriel Sommer, Charles Fierz

Surface snow in polar and mountainous regions is often mobile and this mobility influences surface mass balance and isotopic composition before final deposition, which is poorly understood thus far. In December 2016 and January 2017, during a field campaig ...
