Abstract. A case study of a foehn event in the Inn Valley near Innsbruck, Austria, that occurred on 29 October 2017 framework first intensive observation period (IOP) Penetration and Interruption Alpine Foehn (PIANO) field campaign is investigated. Accompanied with northwesterly crest-level flow, broke through at valley floor as strong westerly winds morning was terminated afternoon by cold fro...

Abstract. In the 2019/2020 austral summer, surface melt duration and extent on northern George VI Ice Shelf (GVIIS) was exceptional compared to 31 previous summers of distinctly lower melt. This finding is based analysis near-continuous 41-year satellite microwave radiometer scatterometer data, which are sensitive meltwater ice shelf in near-surface snow. Using optical imagery from Landsat 8 (2...

National meteorological and hydrological services issue warnings for severe weather events, typically based on stakeholder-agreed fixed thresholds of parameters such as wind speeds or precipitation amounts. Yet societal decisions preventive actions depend the expected impacts event. In order to better inform actions, are currently working towards including into their warnings. We develop an ope...

Antarctic surface air temperature (SAT) variability is characterized by strong seasonality and regionality, which are associated with the tropical–polar teleconnections radiative forcing caused concentration changes in ozone other greenhouse gases. Nevertheless, sparse situ observations disagreement between different reanalysis datasets hinder coherent conclusions about SAT variability. In this...

Abstract South Korea has frequently suffered from heat waves, which are mainly attributable to anomalously prolonged high-pressure systems. There have been many studies regarding the role of large-scale circulation in Korean Peninsula heatwaves, but contribution local-scale and sea surface temperature not analyzed. This study investigates impact local (SST) East Sea (Sea Japan) on variations Pe...

Study objective—To examine and identify relations between sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS) and wind, particularly the föhn wind, in Christchurch, New Zealand. Design—A retrospective epidemiological study combining details of regional hourly meteorological variables and reported SIDS cases. Setting—Christchurch, New Zealand, between 1968 and 1997 inclusively. Participants—All 646 infants repo...

Abstract. This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the foehn episode which occurred over Svalbard on 30–31 May 2017. is well documented by multiplatform measurements carried out during Arctic CLoud Observations Using airborne polar Day (ACLOUD) and Physical feedbacks PBL, Sea ice, Cloud And AerosoL (PASCAL) campaigns. Both orographic wind modification warming are considered here. The l...

Following collapses of the neighboring Larsen A and B ice shelves, C has become a focus increased attention. Determining how prevailing meteorological conditions influence its surface melt regime is paramount importance for understanding dominant processes causing ultimately predicting future. To this end, new, high-resolution (4 km grid spacing) Met Office Unified Model (MetUM) hindcast atmosp...
