Snow accumulation alters the energy budget of engineered (ie photovoltaic panels) and
natural surfaces (ie earth) by affecting the amount of solar energy these surfaces can …

The icing on power transmission lines, as a major hazard affecting the safety of electricity
usage in China during winter, poses a significant challenge in systematically evaluating the …

Abstract The Predicted Particle Properties (P3) bulk microphysics scheme has been recently
modified to combine the two major innovations. The triple‐moment approach to represent …

This paper describes the development of two Outage Prediction Models (OPMs) for power
outages caused by snow and ice storms on electric distribution networks, and their …

Wet snow is a primary cause of atmospheric icing, which can lead to severe damage to
power towers and lines, resulting in electrical breakdowns and blackouts. This study …

During the last 15 years, weather extremes caused several disruptions to the Italian electric
system. Their increasingly occurrence is mainly due to the exchanges along the meridians of …

Ice coating on overhead contact system (OCS) will affect the sliding of pantograph, and arc
discharge phenomena will occur between pantograph and catenary, which will threaten the …

This study examined the impacts of projected climate change on heavy snow loads on
Finnish forests, where snow-induced forest damage occurs frequently. For snow-load …

Accreted ice falling from bridge cables is a hazard to vehicles crossing the bridge. The
falling ice can startle drivers, cause accidents, and break windshields. Therefore, predicting …

Temperatures near 0° C represent a critical threshold for many environmental processes
and socio‐economic activities. This study examines surface air temperatures (T) near 0° C …
