Improving greenhouse gas emission estimates with 222Radon
Inverse modeling is currently our best tool to study the exchanges of greenhouse gases between the surface and atmosphere. In short: the method revolves around optimizing a-priori estimates of fluxes (e.g. fossil fuel emissions) b ...

Does thunderstorm electricity depend on ice-crystal shape?
Background
Lightening is the result of charged regions in thunderclouds. Collision between ice crystals and graupel particles are an important mechanism to cause such charged regions. Depending on the height in the cloud, eithe ...

Explaing black carbon observations at the Veenkampen meteo station
Black carbon measurements at the Veenkampen show peak concentrations in the morning, which are thought to be caused by the morning rush hour traffic at the A12 highway. However, the Veenkampen station is rather remote from the hig ...

Water use strategy and the competition for soil moisture
The drought response of ecosystems is an important topic in land-atmosphere interaction studies. The water use strategy of the vegetation determines how fast the vegetation increases the stomatal conductance. This feeds back on th ...

The influence of the Urban Heat Island on air quality and human health
In the last century, 38 heat waves occurred in Europe, of which 11 were after 1990 and six after 2000 (IPCC 2007). Climate projections for the next 50 years show that the frequency and severity of heat waves will probably further ...
