Comparison of different sets of array configurations for multichannel 2D ERT acquisition
2017
Abstract Traditional electrode arrays such Wenner-Schlumberger or dipole-dipole are still widely used thanks to their well-known properties but the array configurations are generally not optimized for multi-channel resistivity measures. Synthetic datasets relating to four different arrays, dipole-dipole (DD), pole-dipole (PD), Wenner-Schlumberger (WS) and a modified version of multiple gradient (MG), have been made for a systematic comparison between 2D resistivity models and their inverted images. Different sets of array configurations generated from simple combinations of geometric parameters (potential dipole lengths and dipole separation factors) were tested with synthetic and field dat…
Observed versus simulated mountain waves over Scandinavia – improvement by enhanced model resolution?
2016
Abstract. Two mountain wave events, which occured over northern Scandinavia in December 2013 are analysed by means of airborne observations and global and mesoscale numerical simulations with horizontal mesh sizes of 16 km, 7.2 km, 2.4 km and 0.8 km. During both events westerly cross-mountain flow induced upward propagating waves in the troposphere and stratosphere and trapped waves in the lee of the mountains. Despite similar forcing conditions gravity wave breaking occured during the first event at altitudes between 25 km to 30 km due to weak stratospheric background winds, while waves propagated to altitudes above 30 km during the second event. In the lower troposphere trapped lee waves …
