Atmospheric Water Harvesting Through Polymer Hydrogel Sorbents: Materials Chemistry, Design Strategies, and Applications

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based hydrogels have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH) due to their high water affinity, tunable network structure, and excellent moisture adsorption‐desorption performance. Functional hydrogel systems enable efficient water capture and controlled release under low‐energy conditions, offering a sustainable ...

COMPARISON OF MEAN RAIN CATCH OF VARIOUS GAUGE NETWORKS

Hydrology Research, 1974
After the substitution of stereo for horizontal orifices of rain gauges on open steep slopes, the mean network catch in a subbasin with prevailing windward exposure was increased by 11%. In a subbasin with leeward exposure it was increased by only 4%.

Analysis of extreme rainfall in Barcelona using a microscale rain gauge network [PDF]

Meteorological Applications, 2009
AbstractExtreme storms registered by the urban rain gauge network installed and supported by CLABSA (Clavegueram de Barcelona S. A.) in Barcelona in the period 1994–2001 have been investigated. Eleven rain events presenting intensities for durations between 5 min and 24 h with return periods equal to or larger than 5 years for any of the network gauges

Why should space-time variability of rainfall be considered in precision agriculture for soybean in Piracicaba, São Paulo state? [PDF]

Scientia Agricola
Brazil ranks among the world's largest soybean producers; however, significant gaps in crop yield still exist, primarily linked to weather conditions. This study quantifies rainfall spatial variability using two dense networks of rain gauges and examines

Low Latency Global Carbon Budget Reveals Late 2024 Carbon Losses and Contrasting Early 2025 Land Sink Recovery Signals

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Low latency carbon budget estimates for July 2024–June 2025 combine atmospheric CO2 growth rates, fossil emissions, ocean uptake, DGVM land fluxes, and OCO‐2 inversions. The budget shows that late‐2024 land carbon losses dominate the annual anomaly, while early‐2025 recovery differs between bottom‐up models and top‐down inversions, especially in ...

The Influence of Rain Gauge Network Density on the Performance of a Hydrological Model

Computational Water, Energy, and Environmental Engineering, 2018
Rain gauge data suffers from spatial errors because of precipitation variability within short distances and due to sparse or irregular network. Use of interpolation is often unreliable to evaluate due to the aforementioned irregular sparse networks. This study is carried out in the Nette River catchment of Lower Saxony to alleviate the problem of using

Strong Dependence of Extreme Convective Precipitation Intensities on Gauge Network Density

Geophysical Research Letters, 2018
Extreme convective precipitation on subhourly scales is notoriously misrepresented in rain gauge‐based observations, but uncertainties are weakly quantified at the 1 to 30 km scale.

Bayesian Bias Correction of Satellite Rainfall Estimates for Climate Studies

Remote Sensing, 2018
Advances in remote sensing have led to the use of satellite-derived rainfall products to complement the sparse rain gauge data. Although these products are globally and some regional bias corrected, they often show substantial differences relative to ...
