Color palette: Plotting guide for use with GSMAP and GSDRAW digital cartographic software [PDF]

, 1989
Guidelines for plotting a variety of colors and patterns using GSMAP and GSDRAW digital cartographic programs have been developed. These color and pattern variations can be used to fill polygons (areas) on maps, charts, or diagrams. Batch processing file

Evaluation of sub-daily satellite precipitation products and their representation of the diurnal cycle in a tropical island environment

Discover Geoscience
Sub-daily rainfall data are crucial for understanding flood risk and the diurnal cycle of precipitation. This study evaluates the performance of sub-daily satellite precipitation estimates from GSMaP (version 6) and IMERG (version 7b) against rainfall ...

Assessing Dominant Uncertainties in Future Precipitation Projections for a Hurricane‐Prone Region

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Accurate projection of future precipitation remains challenging due to uncertainties in reference data sets, bias correction and global climate models (GCMs). Here, we evaluated these uncertainties across 13 major cities of the U.S. Gulf Coast, a hurricane‐prone region, under 192 historical and future scenarios.

Intensifying Sub‐Daily Rainfall Extremes in Tropical Cities: Projections From Downscaled Baselines in a Warming Climate

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Tropical cities are frequently exposed to short and intense rainfall that poses a significant flood risk to rapidly growing populations, making it essential to predict how these extremes will evolve under climate change. However, local projections remain limited by the lack of high‐resolution climate simulations and long‐term meteorological ...

Investigations of Multi-Platform Data for Developing an Integrated Flood Information System in the Kalu River Basin, Sri Lanka

, 2023
Flood early warning systems (FEWS) are crucial for flood risk management; however, several catchments in the developing world are still far behind in all aspects of FEWS and thus, they encounter devastating damage recurrently due to limitations in data ...

Integrating ground-based and satellite rainfall data for hydrological modeling: A SWAT+ application with sensitivity analysis in the Saguling Watershed, Citarum River Basin

Results in Engineering
In many developing regions and archipelagic nations, the spatial coverage of ground-based rainfall stations (GSR), considered the most reliable source of precipitation data, is often inadequate.

How Precipitation Timing Asymmetry Restructures Vegetation Phenology in Water‐Limited Ecosystems

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract A fundamental paradigm in global phenology posits that temperature serves as the universal initiator of vegetation growth. Here we demonstrate that this assumption fails catastrophically in water‐limited ecosystems, where precipitation timing—not amount—inverts the canonical hierarchy of climate controls.

Performance of weather research forecasting model for seasonal prediction of precipitation over Indonesian maritime continent

Kuwait Journal of Science
The precipitation over the Indonesian Maritime Continent (IMC) is one of the most challenging atmospheric parameters to predict accurately. The Weather Research Forecasting (WRF) model used in this study produces overestimated predictions of ...
