Continuous measurements of blowing snow are scarce, both in time and space. Satellites now provide the opportunity to derive blowing snow occurrences, transport and sublimation rates over Antarctica. These products are extremely valuable and offer a

Urban heat maps in support of EU adaptation policy (u-MAP)

Autor: Filip Lefebre, Dirk Lauwaet, Niels Souverijns, Nele Veldeman

In this presentation, we will present and discuss a Destination Earth use case that intends to provide present and future high-resolution urban heat maps for cities across Europe to underpin and motivate urban climate adaptation measures that are bei

Modelling the impact of cloud condensation and ice nuclei on the near-surface climate of Dronning Maud Land (East Antarctic) using the regional climate model COSMO-CLM²

By serving as condensation and ice nuclei, aerosols play a vital role in the formation of clouds. This has significant implications for the radiation balance and precipitation amounts over the Antarctic Ice Sheet, where type and amount of aerosols di

Regional climate models compute ice sheet surface mass balance (SMB) over a mask that defines the area covered by glacier ice, but ice masks have not been harmonised between models. Intercomparison studies of modelled SMB therefore use a common ice m

Publikováno v: IGARSS

Drylands are considered to be hotspots for climate change impacts and the Sahel in particular has been the subject of several ecological studies. Using dynamic vegetation models we aim to quantify the vulnerability of woody vegetation to climatic var
