Synoptic circulation patterns associated with foehn days in Sofia in the period 1979–2014 [PDF]
Foehn is a well-known example of local atmospheric circulation and is an extreme weather event for wind gusts. It can cause rapid snowmelt in spring or spread of forest fire in summer, as well as significant economic losses.

The community foehn classification experiment [PDF]
Strong winds crossing elevated terrain and descending to its lee occur over mountainous areas worldwide. Winds fulfilling these two criteria are called “foehn” in this paper although different names exist depending on region, sign of temperature change ...

Foehn Winds in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica: The Origin of Extreme Warming Events* [PDF]
Abstract Foehn winds resulting from topographic modification of airflow in the lee of mountain barriers are frequently experienced in the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDVs) of Antarctica. Strong foehn winds in the MDVs cause dramatic warming at onset and have significant effects on landscape forming processes; however, no detailed scientific ...
