Deep Learning for Improving Numerical Weather Prediction of Heavy Rainfall [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The accurate prediction of rainfall, and in particular of the heaviest rainfall events, remains challenging for numerical weather prediction (NWP) models.

Impact of Thermally Forced Circulations on the Diurnal Cycle of Summer Precipitation Over the Southeastern Tibetan Plateau

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The summer precipitation over the southeastern Tibetan Plateau (SETP) exhibits significant diurnal variability, with a notable peak before midnight. This study investigates how thermally forced circulations regulate the diurnal precipitation over the ...

Correcting the radar rainfall forcing of a hydrological model with data assimilation: application to flood forecasting in the Lez Catchment in Southern France [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The present study explores the application of a data assimilation (DA) procedure to correct the radar rain- fall inputs of an event-based, distributed, parsimonious hy- drological model.

Heavy rainfall in peak growing season had larger effects on soil nitrogen flux and pool than in the late season in a semiarid grassland

open access: yes, 2021
Increasing heavy rainfalls can strongly affect ecosystem nitrogen (N) cycling processes and thereby alter soil N fluxes and pools. However, the effects of heavy rainfalls on soil N fluxes and pools are poorly understood, particularly with regards to high

Microphysical Characteristics of a Squall Line Modulated by the Northeast China Cold Vortex Using Polarimetric Radar and Disdrometer Observations

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Heavy precipitation in Northeast China is frequently modulated by the Northeast China Cold Vortex (NCCV), although the microphysical processes within squall lines under such conditions remain insufficiently understood. This study presents a comprehensive

Evolution of Atmospheric Water Vapor and Cloud Liquid Water During Non- and Pre-Precipitation Conditions over the Middle Yangtze River Basin in the Warm Season

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Quantifying the distribution and spatiotemporal variation of water vapor and liquid water is of great significance for understanding the atmospheric thermodynamic processes during extreme meteorological events.

Heavy rainfalls in Poland and their hyetographs

open access: yesAmbio
AbstractIn the light of observed variability in precipitation patterns, there is a growing need for comprehensive data mining of regularly updated rainfall recording databases. Therefore, an analysis of heavy rainfall and hyetographs was conducted using a 30-year high-resolution dataset from 100 rain gauges across Poland, covering 31 646 rainfall ...

Rainfall Estimation by the WSR-88D for Heavy Rainfall Events

open access: yesWeather and Forecasting, 1998
Abstract Storms that produce extreme flooding present a special challenge for the WSR-88D rainfall algorithms. The authors assess the utility of weather radar in the investigation of extreme rain-producing storms through both climatological analyses of long-term radar datasets and case studies of storm events.

Heavy daily-rainfall characteristics over the Gauteng Province [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Daily rainfall over the Gauteng Province, South Africa, was analysed for the summer months of October to March using 32-yr (1977 to 2009) daily rainfall data from about 70 South African Weather Service stations.
