What is a Foehn Clearance? [PDF]
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1985 In the present study foehn clearance is described and compared with strong downslope windstorms like the foehn and chinook. The comparison is based on surface and satellite data taken during foehn north of the Alps in southern Bavaria and during chinook east of the Rocky Mountains.

The Community Foehn Classification Experiment [PDF]
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2018 AbstractStrong winds crossing elevated terrain and descending to its lee occur over mountainous areas worldwide. Winds fulfilling these two criteria are called foehn in this paper although different names exist depending on the region, the sign of the temperature change at onset, and the depth of the overflowing layer.

The surface energy balance during foehn events at Joyce Glacier, McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica [PDF]
The Cryosphere, 2022 The McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDV) are a polar desert, where glacial melt is the main source of water to streams and the ecosystem. Summer air temperatures are typically close to zero, and therefore foehn events can have a large impact on the meltwater ...

Swiss and Austrian Foehn revisited: A Lagrangian-based analysis [PDF]
Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2015 Two different South Foehn types have been described in the literature: the Swiss Foehn is characterized by significant ascent on the southern side of the Alps, hence fulfilling a requirement of the thermodynamic Foehn theory associated with latent ...

The foehn effect during easterly flow over Svalbard [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2022 This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the foehn episode which occurred over Svalbard on 30–31 May 2017. This episode is well documented by multiplatform measurements carried out during the Arctic CLoud Observations Using airborne measurements

The Causes of Foehn Warming in the Lee of Mountains [PDF]
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2016 Abstract The foehn effect is well known as the warming, drying, and cloud clearance experienced on the lee side of mountain ranges during “flow over” conditions. Foehn flows were first described more than a century ago when two mechanisms for this warming effect were postulated: an isentropic drawdown mechanism, where potentially warmer ...

Foehn winds influence surface ablation on Glaciar Perito Moreno, southern Patagonian icefield
Journal of GlaciologyThe southern Patagonian glaciers are known for having extremely high ablation rates. Foehn winds are one of the suspected causes, however, their influence on the annual ablation, their interannual variations, and their relationship with climate change is

On the Looming during Alpine Foehn [PDF]
Boundary-Layer Meteorology, 1991 The note deals with looming during foehn North of the Alps. The results Show that there is a weak effect in stretching optically the orography.
