Foehn winds link climate‐driven warming to ice shelf evolution in Antarctica [PDF]
AbstractRapid warming of the Antarctic Peninsula over the past several decades has led to extensive surface melting on its eastern side, and the disintegration of the Prince Gustav, Larsen A, and Larsen B ice shelves. The warming trend has been attributed to strengthening of circumpolar westerlies resulting from a positive trend in the Southern Annular

Influence of air flow features on alpine wind energy potential
Wind energy is one of the potential options to fill the gap in renewable energy production in Switzerland during the winter season when the energy demand exceeds local production capacities.

A protracted phenology: Post‐diapause larval development of a threatened butterfly
Larval survival during diapause was high; hibernaculum webs were mostly located near Succisa pratensis plants, which often retained vital leaves through winter. Post‐diapause developmental time varied strongly depending on exposure to different microclimates, being reduced by litter cover, solar radiation and a higher heat load index.

ABSTRACT Since grain sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is gaining recognition as a climate‐resilient alternative to maize in Central Europe, optimizing the cultivation technology of commercial hybrids has become a key area of research. A 2‐year study (2023–2024) was conducted in Keszthely, Hungary to assess the plant‐ and plot‐level responses of four

Long‐Term Foehn Reconstruction Combining Unsupervised and Supervised Learning [PDF]
Foehn winds, characterised by abrupt temperature increases and wind speed changes, significantly impact regions on the leeward side of mountain ranges, e.g., by spreading wildfires.

Modelling Storage‐Discharge Relationships in an Alpine Basin in the Canadian Rockies
CRHM was used to model storage‐discharge relationships for Fortress Mountain Research Basin, an alpine basin in the Canadian Rockies. The model showed reasonable predictions of snow accumulation, snowmelt, liquid soil moisture, and streamflow, and nonlinear and hysteretic storage‐discharge relationships for this alpine basin.
