C.BRUN - Turbulence in katabatic and anabatic winds on steep slopes In situ observations in the european Alps
Christophe Brun, Université Grenoble-Alpes (UGA), Laboratoire des Écoulements Géophysiques et Industriels (LEGI), Grenoble, France; christophe.brun@univ-grenoble-alpes.fr Thursday, April 9th (2026), 16:30 Paris Time, LMFL Abstract Katabatic winds are buoyancy flows generated at night by radiative cooling at the Earth’s surface. They are mainly observed in winter during anticyclonic meteorological episodes associated with stratification and temperature inversion in the lower troposphere. Their counterpart consists of anabatic winds by day in summertime along alpine…
