The foehn effect during easterly flow over Svalbard [PDF]
This article presents a comprehensive analysis of the foehn episode which occurred over Svalbard on 30–31 May 2017. This episode is well documented by multiplatform measurements carried out during the Arctic CLoud Observations Using airborne measurements

Foehn Winds at Pine Island Glacier and their role in Ice Changes
Abstract. Pine Island Glacier (PIG) has recently experienced increased ice loss mostly 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 intrusions, the steeply sloping terrain that surrounds the glacier promotes frequent Foehn winds.

Observations of the Temporal Evolution and Spatial Structure of the Gap Flow in the Wipp Valley on 2 and 3 October 1999 [PDF]
The investigation of gap flow in the Wipp Valley (GAP project) is one of the objectives of the Mesoscale Alpine Programme (MAP). The valley runs south–north across the Brenner Pass, from Italy to Austria.

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 wind as a biometeorological stressor: effects on somatic and mental health - a narrative review. [PDF]
Abstract This review summarizes research on foehn wind as a complex biometeorological stressor affecting somatic and neuropsychological health with particular attention to time-lagged effects and vulnerable populations. Foehn, warm and dry winds descending mountains, are linked to decreased mental well-being and are colloquially ...
