  • On the discretization of the ice thickness distribution in the NEMO3.6-LIM3 global ocean–sea ice model 

    Massonnet, François; Barthélemy, Antoine; Worou, Koffi; Fichefet, Thierry; Vancoppenolle, Martin; Rousset, Clément; Moreno-Chamarro, Eduardo (European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2019-08-27)
    Article
    Open Access
    The ice thickness distribution (ITD) is one of the core constituents of modern sea ice models. The ITD accounts for the unresolved spatial variability of sea ice thickness within each model grid cell. While there is a ...

    An assessment of the forecast quality of 10 m wind speed by deterministic and probabilistic verification measures has been carried out using the original raw and two statistical bias-adjusted forecasts in global coupled ...

  • How to use mixed precision in ocean models: exploring a potential reduction of numerical precision in NEMO 4.0 and ROMS 3.6 

    Tintó-Prims, Oriol; Acosta, Mario C.; Moore, Andrew M.; Castrillo, Miguel; Serradell, Kim; Cortés, Ana; Doblas-Reyes, Francisco J. (European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2019-07-24)
    Article
    Open Access
    Mixed-precision approaches can provide substantial speed-ups for both computing- and memory-bound codes with little effort. Most scientific codes have overengineered the numerical precision, leading to a situation in which ...

    Article
    Open Access
    We review the major features of desert dust outbreaks that are relevant to the assessment of dust impacts upon human health. Our ultimate goal is to provide scientific guidance for the acquisition of relevant population ...

  • Extreme, wintertime Saharan dust intrusion in the Iberian Peninsula: Lidar monitoring and evaluation of dust forecast models during the February 2017 event 

    Fernández, Alfonso J.; Sicard, Michäel; Costa, Maria J.; Guerrero-Rascado, Juan L.; Gómez-Amo, José L.; Molero, Francisco; Barragán, Rubén; Basart, Sara; Bortoli, Daniele; Bedoya-Velásquez, Andrés E.; Utrillas, María P.; Salvador, Pedro; Granados-Muñoz, María J.; Potes, Miguel; Ortiz-Amezcua, Pablo; Martínez-Lozano, José A.; Artíñano, Begoña; Muñoz-Porcar, Constantino; Salgado, Rui; Román, Roberto; Rocadenbosch, Francesc; Salgueiro, Vanda; Benavent-Oltra, José A.; Rodríguez-Gómez, Alejandro; Alados-Arboledas, Lucas; Comerón, Adolfo; Pujadas, Manuel (Elsevier, 2019-11-01)
    Article
    Open Access
    An unprecedented extreme Saharan dust event was registered in winter time from 20 to 23 February 2017 over the Iberian Peninsula (IP). We report on aerosol optical properties observed under this extreme dust intrusion ...

  • An assessment of regional sea ice predictability in the Arctic ocean 

    Cruz-García, Rubén; Guemas, Virginie; Chevallier, Matthieu; Massonnet, François (Springer, 2019-07)
    Article
    Restricted access - publisher's policy
    Arctic sea ice plays a central role in the Earth’s climate. Changes in the sea ice on seasonal-to-interannual timescales impact ecosystems, populations and a growing number of stakeholders. A prerequisite for achieving ...

  • Climate controls on snow reliability in French Alps ski resorts 

    Spandre, P.; François, H.; Verfaillie, Deborah; Lafaysse, M.; Déqué, M.; Eckert, N.; George, E.; Morin, S. (Nature Research, 2019-05-29)
    Article
    Open Access
    Ski tourism is a major sector of mountain regions economy, which is under the threat of long-term climate change. Snow management, and in particular grooming and artificial snowmaking, has become a routine component of ski ...

  • HERMESv3, a stand-alone multi-scale atmospheric emission modelling framework – Part 1: global and regional module 

    Guevara, Marc; Tena, Carles; Porquet, Manuel; Jorba, Oriol; Pérez García-Pando, Carlos (European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2019-05-14)

    Abstract Back to top We present the High-Elective Resolution Modelling Emission System version 3 (HERMESv3), an open source, parallel and stand-alone multi-scale atmospheric emission modelling framework that computes ...

  • Impact of reanalysis boundary conditions on downscaled Atlantic hurricane activity 

    Baudouin, Jean-Philippe; Caron, Louis-Philippe; Boudreault, Mathieu (Springer, 2019-03)
    Article
    Open Access
    Climate models are capable of producing features similar to tropical cyclones, but typically display strong biases for many of the storm physical characteristics due to their relatively coarse resolution compared to the ...

  • Sub-seasonal to seasonal climate predictions for wind energy forecasting 

    Soret, Albert; Torralba, Verónica; Cortesi, Nicola; Christel, I.; Palma, Ll.; Manrique-Suñén, A.; Lledó, Llorenç; González-Reviriego, Nube; Doblas-Reyes, Francisco J. (IOP Publishing, 2019-05)
