Meteorological controls on wind erosion during foehn wind events in the eastern Southern Alps, New Zealand

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Earth Sciences, 1997
Foehn winds in the lee of mountain barriers create highly favourable meteorological conditions for wind erosion in alpine areas and over adjacent lowlands. This paper presents meteorological observations made during winter and summer foehn wind erosion events as part of a 3 year investigation into the physical nature and incidence of eolian processes ...

An ill wind: the Foehn in Leukerbad and beyond

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, 2007
The Foehn is a warm, dry, downslope wind found on the lee side of mountains; the type‐location for this adiabatic wind is the European Alps. In the Swiss village of Leukerbad, residents are quite familiar with the Foehn, which sweeps regularly through the main Rhone valley from the southeast.

Regional climate variability driven by foehn winds in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, 2012
AbstractWarm, dry and gusty foehn winds are frequently experienced in the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDVs), Antarctica; however, their significance in the region's climate is unknown. Foehn events in the MDVs are caused by topographic modification of southwesterly airflow which is related to the occurrence of synoptic‐scale cyclones in the Amundsen/Ross Sea ...

Foehn Winds in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica

open access: yes, 2011
Foehn winds are warm, dry and gusty downslope winds resulting from the topographic modification of the airstream in the lee of mountain barriers. They are a climatological feature common to many of the world’s mountainous regions, however, detailed investigations into foehn winds in polar regions and their effects on environmental processes are rare ...

Atmospheric Drivers of Melt on Larsen C Ice Shelf: Surface Energy Budget Regimes and the Impact of Foehn [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres, 2020
Recent ice shelf retreat on the east coast of the Antarctic Peninsula has been principally attributed to atmospherically driven melt. However, previous studies on the largest of these ice shelves – Larsen C – have struggled to reconcile atmospheric ...
