Abstract: Elevated moisture layers in the lower free troposphere (2000?6000 m MSL) in the lee of the Alps were investigated. Specific humidity was analyzed within a Lagrangian concept for fair-weather days during a 12-yr period at ...

Abstract: Uncertainties in the evaluation of the atmospheric heat budget, in which the turbulent heat flux divergence term is calculated as a residual, are investigated for a triangular array of 915-MHz wind profilers?radio acoustic ...

Abstract: A severe bow-echo storm over northern Switzerland is investigated. Wind damage occurred along a track 15 km long and some 100 m wide. Damage data, meteorological data from a ground micronet, and Doppler radar data are ...

Abstract: Several large-aperture scintillometers were built at the Paul Scherrer Institute with the aim to measure wind over complex terrain. A prototype instrument was tested over flat ground, and the performance of six analyzing ...

Abstract: Measurements of the horizontal and vertical wind component by a crosswind scintillometer during foehn, the chinooklike downslope windstorm in the Alps, are presented. Because of the sparsity of vertical velocity measurements ...
