Heavy precipitation forecasts over Switzerland – An evaluation of bias-corrected ECMWF predictions

open access: yesWeather and Climate Extremes, 2021
Heavy precipitation episodes are particularly hazardous in mid-sized alpine catchments where runoff tends to increase rapidly after strong rainfall, leaving limited time for warning.

Glacial geomorphology of the Chirripó National Park, Costa Rica

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2019
Several regions of tropical America show imprints of past glacial activity. These relict landforms can support the understanding of past climate conditions, such as during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), and the implications that these paleoclimatic ...

Climate impacts on tree growth in a Neotropical high mountain forest of the Peruvian Andes

open access: yesiForest - Biogeosciences and Forestry, 2020
Global warming can jeopardize important ecosystem functions and services in sensitive Neotropical mountain areas. However, untangling the relative roles of natural climate variability pattern from current global warming trends still represent a major ...

Tundra cryogenic land surface processes and CO2–C balance in sub-Arctic alpine environment withstand winter and spring warming

open access: yesEnvironmental Research: Climate, 2023
Cryogenic land surface processes (CLSPs), such as cryoturbation, are currently active in landscapes covering 25% of our planet where they dictate key functions, such as carbon (C) cycling, and maintain patterned landscape features.

Unheard and Under‐Supported: Health‐Related Quality of Life in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults With Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Sickle cell disease (SCD) is an autosomal recessive hemoglobinopathy affecting millions of individuals worldwide. The clinical expression and psychosocial burden of SCD vary widely across geographical, cultural, and healthcare system contexts, underscoring the need for setting‐specific approaches to assessment.

Ice‐melt period dominates annual carbon dioxide evasion from clear‐water Arctic lakes

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters
Current estimates of carbon dioxide (CO2) evasion from Arctic lakes are highly uncertain because few studies integrate seasonal variability, specifically evasion during spring ice‐melt.

Groundwater discharge as a driver of methane emissions from Arctic lakes

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
CH4 inputs to Arctic lakes via groundwater discharge are an important pathway that links CH4 production in thawing permafrost to emission via lakes. Here the authors unravel the role and drivers of groundwater inflows for CH4 emissions from Arctic lakes.
