Detection of Particulate Matter With Lock‐In Thermography

open access: yesCleanMat, EarlyView.
Accurate quantification of black carbon is essential due to its significant impact on climate, air quality, and human health. Lock‐in thermography (LIT), as implemented by NanoLockin's instrument Calorsito, offers a sensitive, scalable, and reproducible approach for detecting black carbon on filter substrates.

Swiss glacier mass loss during the 2022 drought: persistent streamflow contributions amid declining melt water volumes [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences
The year 2022 was extremely warm and dry in Europe, resulting in a severe hydrological drought. In Switzerland, part of Europe’s water tower, streamflow in glacier-fed rivers could have been even more reduced if the situation had not led simultaneously ...

A Novel Multilevel Conceptual Framework for Flood Risk Governance

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, flood risk is increasing as climate change progresses. Contemporary flood risk management practice often utilises hydrodynamic modelling (for hazard risk assessments), social vulnerability assessments, and risk communications in silo, which fragments evidence‐based decision‐making for effective flood risk management. We hence develop

Degradation of Seasonally Frozen Ground in the Three–River Source Region and Its Correlation Impact Within Precipitation–Runoff Process

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how climate change alters the water cycle in the Three Rivers Source region by degrading its important ‘solid groundwater’ (seasonally frozen ground). We found that runoff response varies by watershed and the role of permafrost decreases sharply, making water supply more dependent on rainfall and becoming increasingly vulnerable ...

Limited impact of climate forcing products on future glacier evolution in Scandinavia and Iceland

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2021
Due to climate change, worldwide glaciers are rapidly declining. The trend will continue into the future, with consequences for sea level, water availability and tourism.

Scaling issues in snow hydrology [PDF]

open access: yesHydrological Processes, 1999
The concept of scale can be used to quantify characteristic lengths of (a) a natural process (such as the correlation length of the spatial snow water equivalent (SWE) variability); (b) a measurement (such as the size of a snow density sample or the footprint of a satellite sensor), and (c) a model (such as the grid size of a distributed snow model ...

Combining the Underwater Vision Profiler 6 with sediment traps to measure in situ velocity of marine particles

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Particles sinking from the surface to the deep ocean play a key role in the biological carbon pump, whose efficiency depends partly on sinking velocities. Over the last decade, in situ imaging has enabled critical advances in our understanding of particle dynamics in the ocean.

Assessment of snow model uncertainty in relation to the effect of a 1 °C warming using the snow modelling framework openAMUNDSEN [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Novel climate model data at the kilometer-scale, innovative downscaling techniques, sophisticated snow modelling frameworks, and increasing computational capacities are among the elements currently paving the way for a new phase in high resolution and ...

On the use of Tensiometers in Snow Hydrology [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 1976
AbstractThe construction and use of snow-water tensiometers is gerscribed. Water pressure at the base of a shallow, Arctic snow-pack was measured to illustrate the response of the basal layer to water percolation. Water tension above an ice layer and water flux through the ice layer were measured in glacial snow.

A machine learning assisted method for rapidly annotating benthic megafauna in large volumes of marine imagery

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Recent technological advancements have rapidly expanded our capacity for collecting image data in the marine environment, but processing images into meaningful ecological metrics remains a manual, time‐consuming, and biased process. This is particularly challenging with electro‐optical cabled imaging systems which generate images at a rate ...
