The Rhine valley was one target area chosen during the Mesoscale Alpine Programme (MAP) field experiment to study Foehn flows. The dense data set available has allowed the computation and validation of high resolution simulations.

A three-dimensional numerical model is used to simulate the passage of a cold front with pre-frontal foehn over the northern Alpine foreland. A passive nesting scheme allows a detailed inspection of mesoscale patterns in southern Bavaria. The results are

Supplementing a previous study of a dry cold front with pre-frontal foehn (Heimann 1992c) this paper documents the numerical simulation of a precipitating cold front approaching the Alps from northwest without pre-frontal foehn.

Objective mesoscale analyses in complex terrain: application to foehn cases during MAP
A very dense surface network consisting of 38 stations was operated in the Rhine Valley and its tributaries during the MAP-SOP. The data was used to investigate foehn on the meso-scale.

Three-dimensional wind field characteristics of a gorge city based on three Doppler wind lidar and their relationship with atmospheric pollution variations [PDF]
To understand the complex wind patterns in Urumqi, which is a gorge city on the northern slope of the Tianshan Mountains, the study set up three Doppler wind lidars at different altitudes along the city's north-south direction. These instruments operated

Nature and climatology of Pfänderwind
The characteristics and climatology of Pfänderwind, a largely unknown downslope windstorm near the town of Bregenz (Austria) at the entrance of the Rhine Valley, are investigated based on an eleven-year dataset of weather station observations and ERA ...

A Lagrangian perspective on the Alpine Foehn
Mountains exert a strong influence on the atmosphere that manifests itself across the entire spectrum of spatial and temporal scales. For example, downslope winds frequently develop in the lee as a response to the flow over an orographic barrier. In the Alpine region, Foehn constitutes the generic term for such winds. Foehn is perceived as a strong and
