A Chi Distribution Model of Hail Storm Damage [PDF]
This paper addresses the pattern of damage, and investigates its properties, of a theoretical hail storm which gathers in intensity before subsiding, and which travels linearly across the landscape at constant velocity. We start by assuming a simpler model, that of a storm which does not move, restricted to having an uncorrelated binormal distribution ...

Estimation of Hail Damage Using Crop Models and Remote Sensing [PDF]
Insurance agents often provide crop hail damage estimates based on their personal experience and field samples, which are not always representative of the investigated field’s spatial variability.

Responses of Karoo plants to hail damage near Williston, Cape Province
Although hail contributes occasionally to the water budget in the Karoo, it may also cause localized, extensive damage to plants. A comparison was made between damaged and undamaged vegetation to assess the recovery of species, growth forms and ...
