Testing E-OBS European high-resolution gridded data set of daily precipitation and surface temperature

, 2009
Gridded data sets derived through interpolation of station data have a number of potential inaccuracies and errors. These errors can be introduced either by the propagation of errors in the station data into derived gridded data or by limitations in the ...

Vegetation NDVI Linked to Temperature and Precipitation in the Upper Catchments of Yellow River [PDF]

, 2012
Vegetation in the upper catchment of Yellow River is critical for the ecological stability of the whole watershed. The dominant vegetation cover types in this region are grassland and forest, which can strongly influence the eco-environmental status of ...

Intercomparison of daily precipitation persistence in multiple global observations and climate models

Environmental Research Letters, 2019
Daily precipitation persistence is affected by various atmospheric and land processes and provides complementary information to precipitation amount statistics for understanding the precipitation dynamics.

The influence of interpolation and station network density on the distributions and trends of climate variables in gridded daily data

, 2010
We study the influence of station network density on the distributions and trends in indices of area-average daily precipitation and temperature in the E-OBS high resolution gridded dataset of daily climate over Europe, which was produced with the ...

On the Applicability of Temperature and Precipitation Data from CMIP3 for China [PDF]

, 2012
Global Circulation Models (GCMs) contributed to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) and are widely used in global change research.

Assessment of apparent nonstationarity in time series of annual inflow, daily precipitation, and atmospheric circulation indices: A case study from southwest Western Australia

, 2010
The southwest region of Western Australia has experienced a sustained sequence of low annual inflows to major water supply dams over the past 30 years. Until recently, the dominant interpretation of this phenomenon has been predicated on the existence of

Future change of daily precipitation indices in Japan: a stochastic weather generator-based bootstrap approach to provide probabilistic climate information [PDF]

, 2012
This study proposes the stochastic weather generator (WG)-based bootstrap approach to provide the probabilistic climate change information on mean precipitation as well as extremes, which applies a WG (i.e., LARS-WG) to daily precipitation under the ...

Adjustment Methods Applied to Precipitation Series with Different Starting Times of the Observation Day

Atmosphere
The study of long precipitation series constitutes an important issue in climate research and risk assessment. However, long datasets are affected by inhomogeneities that can lead to biased results.

Stochastic modelling of daily precipitation for Canada [PDF]

Atmosphere-Ocean, 2005
Abstract This study assesses the performance of various stochastic models in generating daily precipitation amounts and the durations of wet and dry spells across Canada for the period 1971–2000. The models are tested at 657 stations representing the wide range of climate variability across the country.

Representing uncertainty in continental-scale gridded precipitation fields for agrometeorological modeling

, 2008
This work proposes a relatively simple methodology for creating ensembles of precipitation inputs that are consistent with the spatial and temporal scale necessary for regional crop modeling.
