Observation-guided Interpolation Using Graph Neural Networks for High-Resolution Nowcasting in Switzerland

Ophélia Miralles, Daniele Nerini, Jonas Bhend +2

Recent advances in neural weather forecasting have shown significant potential for accurate short-term forecasts. However, adapting such gridded approaches to smaller, topographica…

Differential reflectivity columns and hail -- linking C-band radar-based estimated column characteristics to crowdsourced hail observations in Switzerland

Martin Aregger, Olivia Martius, Urs Germann +1

Differential reflectivity columns (ZDRC) have been shown to provide information about a storm's updraft intensity and size. The updraft's characteristics, in turn, influence a seve…

Quantifying intra-regime weather variability for energy applications

Judith Gerighausen, Joshua Dorrington, Marisol Osman +1

Weather regimes describe the large-scale atmospheric circulation in the mid-latitudes in terms of a few circulation states that modulate regional surface weather. Subseasonal forec…
