DesnowNet: Context-Aware Deep Network for Snow Removal

open access: yes, 2017
Existing learning-based atmospheric particle-removal approaches such as those used for rainy and hazy images are designed with strong assumptions regarding spatial frequency, trajectory, and translucency.

The RHOSSA campaign: multi-resolution monitoring of the seasonal evolution of the structure and mechanical stability of an alpine snowpack [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2020
The necessity of characterizing snow through objective, physically motivated parameters has led to new model formulations and new measurement techniques.

‘Turkeys Cannot Vote for Christmas’: Why Epistemic Disobedience in an Anti‐Black World Matters

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Never in the history of global coloniality has the idea of epistemic disobedience been as important as in the 21st century. This is not only because the struggle for decolonisation has shifted from physical confrontation between the coloniser and the colonised into a battle of ideas but also because the former has deployed the idea of ...

Simulations of snow distribution and hydrology in a mountain basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We applied a version of the Regional Hydro‐Ecologic Simulation System (RHESSys) that implements snow redistribution, elevation partitioning, and wind‐driven sublimation to Loch Vale Watershed (LVWS), an alpine‐subalpine Rocky Mountain catchment where ...

Can model-based avalanche forecasts match the discriminatory skill of human danger-level forecasts? A comparison from Switzerland [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
In recent years, physics-based snowpack models combined with machine-learning techniques have gained momentum in public avalanche forecasting. When integrated with spatial interpolation methods, these approaches enable fully model-driven predictions of ...

Fire and windthrow in forests: Winners and losers in Neuropterida and Mecoptera [PDF]

open access: yesAlpine Entomology, 2019
The mid-term impact of forest fires and windthrows on species compositions in the insect orders Neuroptera, Raphidioptera and Mecoptera was assessed in Swiss forests using standardized flight interception traps.

National and International Monitoring of Student Literacy and Numeracy Attainment: The Case for Rigorous Macro and Micro Analysis

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In her 2024 paper Are Australian students' academic skills declining? Interrogating 25 years of national and international standardised assessment data, Larsen compiled an impressive summary of major international (PISA, PIRLS and TIMSS) and national (NAPLAN) standardised assessments pertaining to literacy and numeracy.

Decline of the boreal willow grouse (Lagopus lagopus) has been accelerated by more frequent snow-free springs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Climate change has influenced a range of species across the globe. Yet, to state a noted decline in the abundance of a given species as a consequence of a specific environmental change, for instance, spatially explicit long-term data are a prerequisite.

‘The person cutting the path does not know his trail is crooked’. Drawing lessons learned from people accessing antiretroviral treatment services to propose a person-centered care (PCC) minimum practice standard

open access: yesHIV Research & Clinical Practice
Introduction: Person-centered care (PCC) in HIV services aims to improve client experiences, advance service accessibility and treatment outcomes and accelerate progress towards epidemic control.

Wind tunnel experiments: cold-air pooling and atmospheric decoupling above a melting snow patch [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2016
The longevity of perennial snowfields is not fully understood, but it is known that strong atmospheric stability and thus boundary-layer decoupling limit the amount of (sensible and latent) heat that can be transmitted from the atmosphere to the snow ...
