The Alaiz experiment: untangling multi-scale stratified flows over complex terrain [PDF]
Wind Energy Science, 2020 We present novel measurements from a field campaign that aims to characterize multi-scale flow patterns, ranging from 0.1 to 10 km in a time-resolved manner, in a mountainous region in northwestern Spain with a mountain–valley–ridge configuration.

Flash Drought Response to Precipitation and Atmospheric Evaporative Demand in Spain
Atmosphere, 2021 Flash drought is the result of strong precipitation deficits and/or anomalous increases in atmospheric evaporative demand (AED), which triggers a rapid decline in soil moisture and stresses vegetation over short periods of time.

A deep cyclone of African origin over the Western Mediterranean: diagnosis and numerical simulation [PDF]
Annales Geophysicae, 2002 From 19 to 22 December 1979, a deep cyclone evolved over the Western Mediterranean. Gusty winds of more than 30 m/s, as well as a strong pressure decrease to about 990 hPa were recorded in Palma de Mallorca (Balearic Islands, Spain). ECMWF analyses
