STRONG FOEHN AS A TYPE OF SEVERE WEATHER
Strong foehn winds have caused severe damages in Switzerland for centuries. But how often and in which part of the year stormy foehn winds are taking place in the north of the Alps? The synoptics of very strong foehn cases are discussed briefly, and the Swiss warning system is also presented.

An adiabatic foehn mechanism [PDF]
Atmospheric mountain flows, produced when the incoming wind is small near the surface and continuously increases with altitude, are evaluated with models of increasing complexity. All models confirm that foehn can be produced by a mountain gravity wave critical level mechanism, where the critical level is located below the surface.

Kraków, Poland, is a city with poor air quality, located in the large Wisła (Vistula) valley, and affected by a foehn wind from the Tatra Mountains. We analyzed 14 long episodes of the foehn from the periods Sep 2017 - Apr 2018 and Sep 2018 - Apr 2019 ...

Foehn classification and climatology in Sofia for 1975–2014 [PDF]
Foehn is a warm, dry, and downslope wind blowing in the lee side of a mountain range. It is a well known example of a local atmospheric circulation. The foehn wind is also an extreme weather event, and its forecasting is an important task for the short ...

Foehn winds at Pine Island Glacier and their role in ice changes [PDF]
Pine Island Glacier (PIG) has recently experienced increased ice loss that has mostly been attributed to basal melt and ocean ice dynamics. However, atmospheric forcing also plays a role in the ice mass budget, as besides lower-latitude warm air ...

Machine learning-based prediction of Alpine foehn events using GNSS troposphere products: first results for Altdorf, Switzerland [PDF]
Remote sensing of water vapour using the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) is a well-established technique and reliable data source for numerical weather prediction (NWP).

A foehn-induced haze front in Beijing: observations and implications [PDF]
Despite frequent foehns in the Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (BTH) region, there are only a few studies of their effects on air pollution in this region, or elsewhere.

Characteristics and evolution of diurnal foehn events in the Dead Sea valley [PDF]
This paper investigates frequently occurring foehn in the Dead Sea valley. For the first time, sophisticated, high-resolution measurements were performed to investigate the horizontal and vertical flow field.

DANS le dernier numero (406) de votre journal je vois que vous m'avez fait l'honneur de donner un abstract d'un petit travail sur le foehn du Groenland. Malheureusement le rapporteur n'a pas bien compris le danois (ou le norwegien) en quelques endroits, et je me permettrai de vous indiquer les meprises suivantes comme les plus dangereuses.

Machine-learning-based identification of influencing factors and synoptic patterns of foehn on the eastern foothills of the Taihang Mountains, China [PDF]
Foehn is generated over alpine terrain and is exerting increasingly pronounced impacts on air pollution, heatwaves, wildfires, and human health under global warming.
