Agrivoltaic systems combine solar energy and agriculture, promoting dual land use. Although grazing sheep in these systems is common, research on intentionally designed pastures to increase production is lacking. This study seeks to compare the herbage growth and lamb production in simple, diverse, and legume pastures in an agrivoltaic system...
This dataset was used to determine the attenuation of an audio signal by reticulated foam samples that span the natural range of intrinsic permeability for seasonal snow. Data are audio measurements acquired on a two-channel oscilloscope.
The flux of water vapor due to advection is measured using high-resolution Raman lidar that was orientated
horizontally across a land–lake transition. At the same time, a full surface energy balance is performed to assess
the impact of scalar advection on energy budget closure. The flux of water vapor due...
A field campaign, the Slope Experiment near La Fouly (SELF-2010), was conducted to monitor the evening transition of slope flows on clear-sky days from July to September 2010 in a narrow valley of the Swiss Alps. A steep west-facing slope with inclinations ranging from 25° to 45° was instrumented from...
A new multi-telescope scanning Raman lidar designed to measure the water vapor mixing ratio for a complete diurnal cycle with high raw spatial (1.25 m) and temporal (1 s) resolutions is presented. The high resolution allows detailed measurements of the lower atmosphere and offers new opportunities for boundary layer research,...
Taylor’s frozen turbulence hypothesis is the central assumption invoked in most
experiments designed to investigate turbulence physics with time resolving sensors. It is also
frequently used in theoretical discussions when linking Lagrangian to Eulerian flow formalisms.
In this work we seek to quantify the effectiveness of Taylor’s hypothesis on the...
The residual of the surface energy budget is represented as the linearized sum of energy losses due to storage, advection and flux underestimation. Individual contributions to the residual can be quantified through constrained multiple linear regression which identifies the site specific processes that are responsible for the lack of energy...
