Development of a high resolution daily gridded temperature data set (1969–2005) for the Indian region Tập 10 Số 4 - Trang 249-254 - 2009
Akhil Srivastava, M. Rajeevan, S. R. Kshirsagar
AbstractA high resolution daily gridded temperature data set for the Indian
region was developed using temperature data of 395 quality controlled stations
for the period 1969–2005. A modified version of the Shepard's angular distance
weighting algorithm was used for interpolating the station temperature data into
1° latitude × 1° longitude grids. Using the cross validation, errors were
estimated a... hiện toàn bộ
On the critical Richardson number in stably stratified turbulence Tập 8 Số 3 - Trang 65-69 - 2007
Boris Galperin, Semion Sukoriansky, P. S. Anderson
AbstractThe critical Richardson number, Ric, is used in studies of stably
stratified turbulence as a measure of flow laminarization. The accepted range of
Ric is between 0.2 and 1. A growing body of experimental and observational data
indicates, however, that turbulence survives for Ri ≫ 1. This result is
supported by a new spectral theory of turbulence that accounts for strong
anisotropy and wave... hiện toàn bộ
Combining radar and rain gauge rainfall estimates using conditional merging Tập 6 Số 1 - Trang 19-22 - 2005
Scott Sinclair, Geoff Pegram
AbstractThe Hydrologist's traditional tool for measuring rainfall is the rain
gauge. Rain gauges are relatively cheap, easy to maintain and provide a direct
and suitably accurate estimate of rainfall at a point. What rain gauges fail to
capture well is the spatial variability of rainfall with time, an important
aspect for the credible modelling of a catchment's response to rainfall. This
spatial v... hiện toàn bộ
Characteristics of black carbon over Delhi and Manora Peak—a comparative study Tập 13 Số 3 - Trang 223-230 - 2012
A. K. Srivastava, Sachchidanand Singh, P. Pant, U.C. Dumka
AbstractThe characteristics of aerosol black carbon (BC) were studied at two
different climatic regimes, i.e. Delhi and Manora Peak during winter and spring
of 2007. Spring BC was found to be ∼59% lower at Delhi and ∼23% higher at Manora
Peak than their corresponding winter BC. Diurnal BC variation showed two
enhanced peaks at Delhi (morning and night) whereas a single late afternoon peak
at Manor... hiện toàn bộ
Large‐scale index for South America Monsoon (LISAM) Tập 8 Số 2 - Trang 51-57 - 2007
Ana Elizabethe da Silva, Leila M. V. Carvalho
AbstractTime variations and large‐scale features of South America summer monsoon
are characterized by an index based on the first combined EOF of anomalies of
precipitation, specific humidity, air temperature, and zonal and meridional
winds at 850 hPa. This index describes intraseasonal to interannual variations
of the monsoon. Copyright © 2007 Royal Meteorological Society
Different long‐term trends of extra‐tropical cyclones and windstorms in ERA‐20C and NOAA‐20CR reanalyses Tập 17 Số 11 - Trang 586-595 - 2016
Daniel J. Befort, S.B. Wild, Tim Kruschke, Uwe Ulbrich, Gregor C. Leckebusch
AbstractNOAA 20th century and ERA‐20C reanalysis datasets are evaluated
regarding the representation of extra‐tropical cyclones and windstorms over the
Northern and Southern Hemisphere during the respective 6‐month winter seasons.
The results indicate substantial differences in low‐frequency variability
between the two datasets – especially in the first half of the 20th century –
expressed in diff... hiện toàn bộ
A national assessment of the sensitivity of Australian runoff to climate change Tập 9 Số 4 - Trang 202-208 - 2008
Benjamin L. Preston, Roger Jones
AbstractThe relationship between catchment rainfall, evapotranspiration and
runoff can be exploited to assess climate risk to water resources. National data
regarding climatology and runoff were used to estimate the sensitivity of
regional runoff to projected changes in precipitation and evaporation. These
sensitivity factors were integrated with patterns of climate change from 12
different global... hiện toàn bộ
A kinetic energy budget on the severe wind production that causes a serious state grid failure in Southern Xinjiang China Tập 21 Số 7 - 2020
Shenming Fu, Shuanglong Jin, Wei Shen, Danyu Li, Bin Liu, Jianhua Sun
AbstractBased on the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF)
ERA5 reanalysis data, in this study, formation mechanisms of a severe windstorm
that caused successive trippings of the transmission lines in Southern Xinjiang
were investigated. The strong windstorm occurred within a lower‐tropospheric
warm region due to adiabatic heating of the descending motions ahead of a
shortwave... hiện toàn bộ
Hurricane intensity changes associated with geomagnetic variation Tập 2 - Trang 104-113 - 2001
Brian H. Fiedler, Katharine M. Kanak
AbstractRecently some indications have appeared that several purely
meteorological processes in the terrestrial atmosphere are dependent upon
magnetosphere variations. To analyse the possible relationship with North
Atlantic hurricane intensification, the authors examine geomagnetic data for ten
days prior to all hurricanes over the last 50 years (1950–1999). A significant
positive correlation bet... hiện toàn bộ
