Rain Area Detection in South-Western Kenya by Using Multispectral Satellite Data from Meteosat Second Generation

open access: yesSensors, 2021
This study presents a rain area detection scheme that uses a gradient based adaptive technique for daytime and nighttime rain area detection and correction from reflectance and infrared (IR) brightness temperatures data of the Meteosat Second Generation (

CoCoRaHS: The Evolution and Accomplishments of a Volunteer Rain Gauge Network

open access: yesBulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2016
Abstract The Community Collaborative Rain, Hail and Snow Network (CoCoRaHS) is a large and growing community of volunteers measuring and reporting precipitation and is making this information broadly available for the research and operational community.

Rain-Gauge Network Evaluations Using Spatiotemporal Correlation Structure for Semi-Mountainous Regions

open access: yesTerrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2014
A reliable network of rain gauges is a crucial component of rainfall estimation in a watershed. To provide a better evaluation method for rain-gauge networks, a new evaluation method using average inter-gauge correlation coefficients (averaged CC) for ...

Simulation of Rainfall-Induced Floods in Small Catchments (the Polomet’ River, North-West Russia) Using Rain Gauge and Radar Data

open access: yesHydrology, 2020
In recent years, rain floods caused by abnormal rainfall precipitation have caused several damages in various part of Russia. Precise forecasting of rainfall runoff is essential for both operational practice to optimize the operation of the ...

Climatology of daily rainfall semi-variance in The Netherlands [PDF]

open access: yesHydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2011
Rain gauges can offer high quality rainfall measurements at their locations. Networks of rain gauges can offer better insight into the space-time variability of rainfall, but they tend to be too widely spaced for accurate estimates between points.

Bias introduced in rainfall risk assessment by a rain gauges network

open access: yesWater Science and Technology, 1998
When large periods of observation are considered, the densest information are often a collection of the daily rain gauges network. As this information is scattered in space, the stochastic results and specially the rainfall risk assessment, are biased because of the rainfall events that are not ‘observed’ by the network.

2-D spatial distribution of rainfall rate through combined use of radar reflectivity and rain gauge data [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Geosciences, 2005
This paper describes and comments the results obtained applying a data processing method to a joint set of radar and a rain gauge data for estimating the 2-D rainfall field at ground averaged over a given observation time T and over a radar coverage area

Reconstructing enzyme evolution by protein engineering

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Natural enzyme evolution can be retraced by protein engineering methods such as directed evolution, rational design, and ancestral sequence reconstruction. These approaches reveal how enzymes emerged from ligand‐binding scaffolds, developed varying substrate preferences, formed oligomeric complexes, adapted to environmental changes, and evolved novel ...

Influence of the rain gauge network on the performance of a hydrological lumped model applied at different basin scales

open access: yesRBRH, 2018
In this study was evaluated the influence of the rainfall monitoring network density and distribution on the result of rainfall-runoff daily simulations of a lumped model (IPH II) considering basins with different drainage scales: Turvo River (1,540 km2),
