    Observations of lifted temperature minimum (LTM) profiles in the nocturnal boundary layer were first reported in 1932. It was defined by the existence of a temperature minimum some centimetres above the ground. During the ...

  • Flash heat and flash cold phenomena in the Iberian Peninsula since 1900 

    Mazon, Jordi; Cortés, Jacob; Almarza, Victor; Pino González, David (2015)
    Text en actes de congrés
    Accés obert
    Rapid and sudden changes in air temperature can be classified as extreme events, having a risk for human activities, human health and ecosystems. Flash heat and flash cold events are investigated in the Iberian Peninsula ...

  • Transdisciplinary and multiscale reconstruction of the major floods
