Scientists map Arctic aerosols to better understand regional warming

Institute (PSI) have studied the chemical composition and origin – whether natural or anthropogenic – of aerosols in a region spanning from Russia to Canada. Their findings provide unique insights for helping researchers better understand climate change in ...

Spatiotemporal modelling of extreme wildfires and severe thunderstorm environments

Jonathan Koh Boon Han

Environmental extreme events can have devastating impacts on society when they interact with vulnerable human and natural systems. Such events can result from natural causes, like phenomena related to the El Ni~no-Southern Oscillation or decadal/multi-dec ...

Numerical investigation of the effect of cohesion and ground friction on snow avalanches flow regimes

Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume, Betty Sovilla

With ongoing global warming, snow avalanche dynamics may change as snow cohesion and friction strongly depend on temperature. In the field, a diversity of avalanche flow regimes has been reported including fast, sheared flows and slow plugs. While the sign ...

Past and future impacts of climate change on swiss river temperature and discharge investigated with data analysis and numerical modelling

Adrien Michel

This thesis presents the first large-scale assessment of past, present and future impacts of climate change on river temperatures in Switzerland. Water temperature is a crucial factor influencing, among others, the health of aquatic ecosystems, the industr ...

Warming of lowland Polish lakes under future climate change scenarios and consequences for ice cover and mixing dynamics

Sebastiano Piccolroaz

Study region: The study region comprises 25 lowland Polish lakes in the northern part of the country. The studied lakes provide domestic, industrial and agricultural water supply, and are major attractions for tourism, thus playing a significant role in th ...

Substantial decrease in CO2 emissions from Chinese inland waters due to global change

Tom Ian Battin

Carbon dioxide (CO2) evasion from inland waters is an important component of the global carbon cycle. However, it remains unknown how global change affects CO2 emissions over longer time scales. Here, we present seasonal and annual fluxes of CO2 emissions ...

Exploring easy-implementable adaptation strategies to climate change scenarios of existing office buildings: a case study in the Swiss context

Sergi Aguacil Moreno, Dolaana Khovalyg, Verena Marie Barthelmes, Cecile Anne Berquand

European energy policies are aimed at increasing the climate resilience of infrastructure, including new and existing buildings. The implications of future ambient conditions on the energy and environmental performance in buildings and respective adaptatio ...

On the role of local depth and latitude on surface warming heterogeneity in the Laurentian Great Lakes

Sebastiano Piccolroaz, Marco Toffolon, Elisa Calamita

Lake surface water temperature (LSWT) responds rapidly to changes in climatic variables. This response is heterogeneous in space and its spatial distribution is primarily influenced by lake bathymetry and latitude. Such heterogeneity is not captured by one ...

Reaching Paris Agreement Goal through CDR/DAC Development: A Compact OR Model

Marc Vielle, Frédéric Louis François Babonneau, Alain Haurie

A compact operations research (OR) model is proposed to analyse the prospects of meeting the Paris Agreement targets when direct air capture technologies can be used or not. The main features of the model are (i) the representation of the economy and energ ...
