Subtropical Foehn Winds, Southeast Queensland, Australia

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research D: Atmospheres
Foehn winds have been a focus of research in mid‐latitude mountainous regions for more than 150 years, where their onset is typically associated with warm, dry, and gusty winds.

Nowcasting Foehn Wind Events Using the AdaBoost Machine Learning Algorithm

open access: yesWeather and Forecasting, 2017
Abstract The south foehn is a characteristic downslope windstorm in the valleys of the northern Alps in Europe that demands reliable forecasts because of its substantial economic and societal impacts. Traditionally, a foehn is predicted based on pressure differences and tendencies across the Alpine ridge. Here, a new objective method for

Influence of Foehn on Aortic Aneurysm Ruptures in Southern Germany. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Clin Med
Background/Objectives: Foehn, a warm, dry wind blowing down into the valleys of a mountain, is a typical weather condition in southern Germany. Until now, there have been no data regarding the impact of foehn on aortic aneurysm ruptures in the Alpine ...

Evaluation of Ensemble‐Based Extreme Forecast Diagnostics for Zonda Wind Prediction

open access: yesEarth and Space Science
Zonda is a downslope windstorm on the eastern slopes of the Andes in western Argentina. This Foehn‐like phenomenon can produce hazardous, strong, and gusty downslope winds, leading to extreme and rapid warming with severe societal impacts.
