VERY STRONG FOEHN WINDS IN THE TATRA MOUNTAINS (POLISH CARPATHIAN MOUNTAINS) – CAUSES, COURSE AND CONSEQUENCES [PDF]
Aerul şi Apa: Componente ale Mediului, 2015 The foehn wind in the Tatra Mountains is referred to as "halny". It blows from the south and often causes significant temperature rises and drops in air humidity on the leeward side of the mountain range.

Influence of Foehn on Aortic Aneurysm Ruptures in Southern Germany. [PDF]
J Clin MedBackground/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 ...

Foehn Winds at Pine Island Glacier and their role in Ice Changes
The Cryosphere, 2023 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.

Foehn winds on McCall Glacier, Alaska: Identification and impacts
Exceptionally strong, gusty and warm winds were observed at the McCall glacier in the Brooks Range in North Alaska by local scientist Matt Nolan. He reported that these winds often caused substantial amounts of snow scour during winter. Their origins, however, are unknown but their characteristics are similar to Foehn winds.

Foehn classification and climatology in Sofia for 1975–2014 [PDF]
, 2020 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 ...

Is it foehn or sea breeze? Eulerian and Lagrangian analysis of the flow in the Jordan Valley
Meteorologische Zeitschrift, 2023 For more than one century, the penetration of the Mediterranean Sea Breeze into the Jordan Valley has been studied. At times, the associated downslope westerlies in the Dead Sea area exhibit foehn characteristics, leading to a warming and drying upon ...
