Automatic and probabilistic foehn diagnosis with a statistical mixture model [PDF]

, 2013
Diagnosing foehn winds from weather station data downwind of topographic obstacles requires distinguishing them from other downslope winds, particularly nocturnal ones driven by radiative cooling.

Turbulent snow transport and accumulation: New reduced‐order models and diagnostics

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 152, Issue 776, April 2026 Part A.
Our new reduced‐order models of snow particle transport provide high‐fidelity calculations of snow accumulation in turbulent flows at significantly reduced computational costs. Additional accumulation diagnostics from the reduced‐order model predict complex patterns of particle concentration in turbulent boundary layers via coherent flow structures in ...

Foehn winds in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctic: The origin of extreme warming events [PDF]

, 2010
Foehn winds resulting from topographic modification of airflow in the lee of mountain barriers are frequently experienced in the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDVs) of Antarctica. Strong foehn winds in the MDVs cause dramatic warming at onset and have significant

Comparison of two numerical weather prediction models in simulating south foehn in the Alpine Rhine Valley

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 152, Issue 777, April 2026 Part B.
ICON outperforms COSMO in simulating a south foehn event in the Alpine Rhine Valley, with improved accuracy in temperature, wind speed, and foehn timing. This enhanced performance likely results from a more accurate representation of surface energy balance and gravity wave pattern on the lee side of the mountain.

Effects of Orography on the High-Temperature Event on 22 June 2023 in North China

Atmosphere
An extreme high-temperature event occurred in North China on 22 June 2023, with the maximum temperature reaching 41.8 °C. The high-temperature centers preferentially occurred at the foothills of the Taihang and Yanshan Mountains, indicating an important ...

On the descent of the Alpine south foehn

, 2023
Abstract. When foehn winds surmount the Alps from the south, they often abruptly and vigorously descend into the leeside valleys on the Alpine north side. Scientists have long been intrigued by the underlying cause of this pronounced descent. While mountain gravity waves provide a modern theoretical foundation to explain the phenomenon, the descent of ...

Present and future downslope windstorms in the Scandinavian Mountains from a kilometre‐scale climate model

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, Volume 152, Issue 777, April 2026 Part B.
Kilometre‐scale climate simulations for Scandinavia indicate the importance of high resolution for reproducing downslope windstorms (DWs). Scandinavian DWs on average induce a limited local warming but with large variability due to the region's complex orography.

Upper Ocean Cycling of Iron South of the Polar Front: Biological Patterns and Processes

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 40, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Samples from the upper 300 m along the 52°S band, south of the Antarctic Polar Front in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean, including a 3‐week monitoring of a persistent bloom, were analyzed to advance our understanding of iron cycling and supply to recurrent phytoplankton blooms.

Ciel typique de foehn sous un lever de soleil flamboyant

, 2011
Ciel typique de foehn sous un lever de soleil flamboyant. Le franchissement d'un obstacle (ici les Pyrénées) par une masse d'air provoque la formation d'onde dont cette barre de foehn est un expression.
