Term · Meteorology and atmospheric science · MLC-T-MET-008698

A local mountain wind that flows down from the Schlern massif in the Dolomites, typically occurring during the night or early morning hours. This katabatic wind is driven by the cooling of air over the mountain slopes, causing it to become denser and flow downslope into the valleys. It is a common phenomenon in mountainous regions, influencing local weather patterns.
