Diurnal Variation Characteristics of Clouds and Precipitation during the Summer Season in Two Typical Climate Regions of the Tibetan Plateau

Remote Sensing, 2023
Mêdog and Nagqu are two typical climate regions of the Tibetan Plateau, with different atmospheric conditions and local orography. This may lead to different diurnal variation patterns of clouds and precipitation.

Evidence of a Diurnal Cycle in Precipitation over the Southern Ocean as Observed at Macquarie Island

Atmosphere, 2020
Due to a lack of observations, relatively large discrepancies exist between precipitation products over the Southern Ocean. In this manuscript, surface hourly precipitation observations from Macquarie Island (54.62 ° S, 158.85 °

Diurnal Cycle of IMERG V06 Precipitation

Geophysical Research Letters, 2019
AbstractThis study demonstrates the maturing ability of the half‐hourly precipitation estimates from the Integrated Multi‐satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) for use in global analyses of the diurnal cycle. The refined intercalibration and interpolation between the sensors in V06 leads to greater consistency in the precipitation retrievals over ...

Diurnal cycle of precipitable water vapor over Spain [PDF]

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, 2011
AbstractKnowledge of the diurnal cycle of precipitable water vapor (PWV) is very limited owing to the lack of data with sufficient temporal resolution. Currently, GPS receivers have proven to be a suitable technique to determine PWV diurnal variations. In this study, the annual and seasonal diurnal cycles of PWV have been obtained from GPS data for 10 ...

Diurnal Cycle of the North American Monsoon in a Mesoscale Model Simulation: Evolution of Key Parameters in Relation to Precipitation

Atmosphere, 2011
The diurnal cycle of the North American monsoon is analyzed based on the output from a mesoscale model simulation. Statistically significant diurnal cycle in precipitation is identified, with heavy precipitation—essentially convective—dominating in local

Diurnal cycle of precipitation over global monsoon systems in CMIP6 simulations

Climate Dynamics, 2022
Abstract Accurate simulation of the diurnal cycle of precipitation over different climate regimes, including global monsoon systems, is an ongoing challenge for current state-of-the-art climate models. In this study, the diurnal cycles of summertime precipitation from 21 CMIP6 historical simulations are evaluated with the NASA IMERG data via ...

Valley–Mountain Circulation Associated with the Diurnal Cycle of Precipitation in the Tropical Andes (Santa River Basin, Peru)

Atmosphere, 2022
The Cordillera Blanca (central Andes of Peru) represents the largest concentration of tropical glaciers in the world. The atmospheric processes related to precipitations are still scarcely studied in this region.

Evaluating Satellite-Based Diurnal Cycles of Precipitation in the African Tropics

Journal of Applied Meteorology and Climatology, 2016
AbstractPrecipitation plays a major role in the energy and water cycles of the earth. Because of its variable nature, consistent observations of global precipitation are challenging. Satellite-based precipitation datasets present an alternative to in situ–based datasets in areas sparsely covered by ground stations.

Diurnal Variation in Cloud and Precipitation Characteristics in Summer over the Tibetan Plateau and Sichuan Basin

Remote Sensing, 2022
The diurnal variation in precipitation and cloud parameters and their influencing factors during summer over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) and Sichuan Basin (SB) were investigated using the Hydro-Estimator satellite rainfall estimates, ground observations ...

Diurnal Cycle of Precipitation and Extremes in Nepal

Journal of Institute of Science and Technology
This study examines the spatio-temporal distribution of hourly precipitation across Nepal using Integrated Multi-Satellite Retrievals for Global Precipitation Measurement (IMERG) data from 2015 to 2021. The findings indicate that hourly precipitation intensity during the monsoon season can reach up to 0.7 mm/hr, while pre-monsoon intensities peak at 0 ...
