Abstract The seasonal dependence of Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model surface temperature biases sensitivity to planetary boundary layer (PBL) schemes are jointly explored. For this purpose, the year 2001 was simulated using three different PBL in a domain covering all Europe. simulations were compared with gridded observations, upper‐air data high‐frequency station data. Seasonal daily cycles analysed, aimed at providing link between long‐term restricted case studies. results...
Abstract. Due to the major role of sun in heating earth's surface, atmospheric planetary boundary layer over land is inherently marked by a diurnal cycle. The afternoon transition, period day that connects daytime dry convective night-time stable layer, still has number unanswered scientific questions. This phase cycle challenging from both modelling and observational perspectives: it transitory, most forcings are small or null turbulence regime changes fully convective, close homogeneous...
Abstract Flow in a stably stratified environment is characterized by anisotropic and intermittent turbulence wavelike motions of varying amplitudes periods. Understanding intermittency wave‐turbulence interactions flow remains challenging issue geosciences including planetary atmospheres oceans. The stable atmospheric boundary layer (SABL) commonly occurs when the ground surface cooled longwave radiation emission such as at night over land surfaces, or even daytime snow ice warm air advected...
Abstract Nowadays, mesoscale meteorological models coupled to Urban Canopy Parameterizations (UCP) can be used complement and interpret the information gathered from intensive campaigns on behaviour of Boundary Layer (UBL). Moreover, impact air conditioning (AC) systems temperature, relationships existing between energy consumption (EC) conditions, evaluation strategies mitigate Heat Island (UHI) phenomenon evaluated using detailed UCP. In this work, a new UCP implemented in Weather Research...
A six‐year climatology of radiation fog has been compiled at two sites: the Research Centre for Lower Atmosphere (CIBA, Spain) and Cabauw Experimental Site Atmospheric (CESAR, The Netherlands). These sites are contrasted in terms geographical situation, climate zone, altitude, humidity soil water availability. Therefore, several climatological differences abundance, onset, dissipation duration have quantified between sites. more humid site (CESAR) is characterised by relatively short events...
According to clinical studies, around one third of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) will suffer a stroke during their lifetime. Between 70 and 90% these strokes are caused by thrombus formed in the left appendage. In contraindications oral anticoagulants, appendage occluder (LAAO) is often implanted prevent blood flow entering LAA. A limited range LAAO devices available, different designs sizes. Together heterogeneity LAA morphology, factors make success dependent on clinician's...
Abstract. The prediction of fogs is one the processes not well reproduced by Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP) models. In particular, role turbulence in formation or dissipation physical processed understood, and therefore, parameterized NWP Observational analysis three different periods with at Spanish Northern Plateau has been carried out. These have also simulated Research Forecasting (WRF) numerical model their results compared to observations. study includes a comparison skill...
The OceanUCA project aims to develop an operational platform that enhances the existing tools created by University of Cádiz, integrating new observational systems and high-resolution numerical models, both atmospheric hydrodynamic, achieve maximum resolution along Andalusian coast (Spain). This utilizes open-source software WebGIS services, enabling flexible accessible geospatial data visualization analysis for a wide range stakeholders.By enhancing computational resources with...
Extreme weather events, such as heat waves, are increasingly common during summers in theMediterranean area. The effect of urban overheating -known the increase averagetemperature within canopy caused by storage on their surfaces thanks to theiroptical and thermal characteristics, addition emissions due anthropogenic activities-can cause stress population city significantly theseepisodes, leading serious health consequences. study this type impact must bequantified means comfort indices that...
Nocturnal downvalley flows were examined in a valley located southern France, near the Pyrenees. Three meteorological stations strategically placed at different locations within valley, collecting year-long dataset of near-surface observations. This enables an investigation how these are organized and evolve throughout annual cycle.To identify flow events, we applied breeze detection algorithm (Arrillaga et al., 2018; Román-Cascón 2019). Once detected, events characterized...
The main objective of the OceanUCA project is modernization technological infrastructure University Cadiz in relation to atmospheric and hydrodynamic numerical modeling specifically configured simulate physical processes on coast Andalusia (Spain).The initiative focuses improvement systems (oceanographic atmospheric) servers, mainly THREDDS ERDDAP. facilitates connectivity between scientific data providers end users, while ERDDAP simplifies sharing visualization time series through common...
Coastal breezes are mesoscale meteorological phenomena primarily driven by the thermal contrast between land and sea surfaces, creating a dynamic system that influences local circulation. These phenomena, common in coastal regions, have significant impact on various environmental aspects, such as regulating extreme temperatures, transporting atmospheric pollutants, modifying surface ocean currents. This study aims to characterize breeze along southwest coast of Spain, using combination...
Sea breezes are mesoscale phenomena formed in coastal regions when winds at the synoptic scale weak. During daytime, their general (and well-known) picture includes sea-to-land surface and land-to-sea ones a certain height, closing breeze circulation. However, this canonical is rarely observed from observations due to interactions of sea with other flows, such as those related background (weak moderate) conditions, development local flows and/or processes within atmospheric boundary layer,...
Abstract. Data from SABLES98 experimental campaign have been used in order to study the influence of stability (from weak strong stratification) on flux-profile relationships for momentum, Φm, and heat, Φh. Measurements 14 thermocouples 3 sonic anemometers at three levels (5.8, 13.5 32 m) period 10 28 September 1998 were analysed using framework local-scaling approach (Nieuwstadt, 1984a; 1984b), which can be interpreted as an extension Monin-Obukhov similarity theory (Obukhov, 1946). The...
Abstract Drainage or katabatic flows are common mesoscale circulations established as a result of differential radiative cooling near-surface air masses in sloping terrain. The initial irruption these flows, with sudden shifts wind speed and direction, may vertical displacements parcels from their equilibrium position, which prove to be source internal gravity waves. This paper illustrates this mechanism describes the main features oscillations following study observational data gathered...
