  • Canopy structure, topography, and weather are equally important drivers of small-scale snow cover dynamics in sub-alpine forests 
    Mazzotti, Giulia; Webster, Clare; Quéno, Louis; Cluzet, Bertrand; Jonas, Tobias (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    In mountain regions, forests that overlap with seasonal snow mostly reside in complex terrain. Due to persisting major observational challenges in these environments, the combined impact of forest structure and topography ...
  • Microclimate mapping using novel radiative transfer modelling 
    Zellweger, Florian; Webster, Clare; Sulmoni, Eric; Malle, Johanna; Baltensweiler, Andri; Jonas, Tobias; Zimmermann, Niklaus E.; Ginzler, Christian; Karger, Dirk; Frenne, Pieter De; Frey, David (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    Abstract. Climate data matching the scales at which organisms experience climatic conditions are often missing. Yet, such data on microclimatic conditions are required to better understand climate change impacts on ...
  • Operational snow-hydrological modeling for Switzerland 
    Mott, Rebecca; Winstral, Adam; Cluzet, Bertrand; Helbig, Nora; Magnusson, Jan; Mazzotti, Giulia; Quéno, Louis; Schirmer, Michael; Webster, Clare; Jonas, Tobias (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    The seasonal evolution of snow cover has significant impacts on the hydrological cycle and microclimate in mountainous regions. However, snow processes also play a crucial role in triggering alpine mass movements and ...
  • Snow accumulation and ablation measurements in a midlatitude mountain coniferous forest (Col de Porte, France, 1325 m altitude): the Snow Under Forest (SnoUF) field campaign data set 
    Sicart, Jean Emmanuel; Ramseyer, Victor; Picard, Ghislain; Arnaud, Laurent; Coulaud, Catherine; Freche, Guilhem; Soubeyrand, Damien; Lejeune, Yves; Gouttevin, Isabelle; Le Gac, Erwan; Berger, Frédéric; Monnet, Jean-Matthieu; Borgniet, Laurent; Mermin, Éric; Rutter, Nick; Webster, Clare; Essery, Richard (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    Forests strongly modify the accumulation, metamorphism and melting of snow in midlatitude and high-latitude regions. Recently, snow routines in hydrological and land surface models were improved to incorporate more accurate ...
  • Using just a canopy height model to obtain lidar-level accuracy in 3D forest canopy shortwave transmissivity estimates 
    Webster, Clare; Essery, Richard; Mazzotti, Giulia; Jonas, Tobias (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    This study presents a new model for calculating canopy shortwave radiation transmissivity from synthetic hemispheric images using only information contained within a canopy height model (CHM) – CanopyHeightModel2Radiation ...
