The Crucial Role of Synoptic Pattern in Determining the Spatial Distribution and Diurnal Cycle of Heavy Rainfall over the South China Coast

, 2021
The South China coast suffers frequent heavy rainfall every warm season. Based on the objective classification method of principal components analysis, the key role of the synoptic pattern in determining the heavy rainfall processes that occurred over ...

Modeling of Heavy Rainfall

1997
More than any other element of the hydrologic cycle, rainfall exhibits pronounced fluctuations in time and space. Modeling of rainfall entails quantitative representation of the space-time fluctuations of rainfall. Rainfall models are used for a variety of hydroclimatological applications (see Foufoula-Georgiou and Krajewski, 1994 for a detailed review)

Real-Time Landslide Warning During Heavy Rainfall

Science, 1987
A real-time system for issuing warnings of landslides during major storms is being developed for the San Francisco Bay region, California. The system is based on empirical and theoretical relations between rainfall and landslide initiation, geologic determination of areas susceptible to landslides, real-time monitoring of a regional network of ...

Heavy Rainfall Hazards

2004
Concerning natural hazards, those linked to rain are very important for mankind, because of the risk induced. In Mediterranean regions and in numerous parts of the world, summer drought and heavy rains are basically the two major climatic hazards. The second one (snow problems and road accidents excepted) is not dangerous because of itself, but because

Heavy rainfalls over East Asia

International Journal of Climatology, 1989
AbstractThe mean annual and monthly frequency distribution of heavy rainfalls for the period 1971–1980 are investigated over the whole of East Asia, including Japan, China, Korea, USSR, and Hong Kong. The highest frequency region (< 10 times per year) is shown to be located along the southern coast of Japan.
