Zenith total delay study of a mesoscale convective system : GPS observations and fine-scale modelling [PDF]
, 2008 Zenith Total Delay (ZTD) observations and model calculations are used to analyze a mesoscale convective system which yielded a large amount of precipitation over a short period of time in the north-western Mediterranean. ZTD observations are derived from

Model simulations of complex dust emissions over the Sahara during the West African monsoon onset [PDF]
, 2012 The existing limitations in ground-based observations in remote areas in West Africa determine the dependence on numerical models to represent the atmospheric mechanisms that contribute to dust outbreaks at different space-time scales.

Statistical investigations of flow structures in different regimes of the stable boundary layer [PDF]
, 2019 A combination of methods originating from non-stationary timeseries analysis is applied to two datasets of near surface turbulence in order to gain insights on the non-stationary enhancement mechanism of intermittent turbulence in the stable atmospheric ...

Martian meso/micro-scale winds and surface energy budget [PDF]
, 2011 Regional, diurnal and seasonal variations of surface temperature are particularly large on Mars. This is mostly due to the Martian surface remaining close to radiative equilibrium.

On the Universality of Mesoscience: Science of 'the in-between' [PDF]
, 2013 The universality of mesoscales, ranging between elemental particles and the universe, is discussed here by reviewing widely disparate fields and presenting four cases, at differing hierarchical levels, from chemistry, chemical engineering, meteorology ...
