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

Identification-based Diagnosis of Rainfall ¿Stream Flow Data: the Tinderry Catchment [PDF]
System identification tools, such as transfer function (TF) model structure identification, recursive estimation, time-varying parameter (TVP) estimation and assessment of data information, are used to evaluate the quality of rainfall-stream flow data ...

Estimating RUSLE’s rainfall factor in the part of Italy with a Mediterranean rainfall regime [PDF]
Abstract. The computation of the erosion index (EI), which is basic to the determination of the rainfall-runoff erosivity factor R of the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE), is tedious and time-consuming and requires a continuous record of rainfall intensity.

Estimation of missing rainfall data in northeast region of Thailand using kriging methods: A comparison study [PDF]
Ground-based rainfall observations are the primary sources of precipitation data used in most developing countries. However, those observations are frequently damaged or incomplete, thus missing data is always a problem.

The hydrologic cycle is the most important component of the global climate system. This is true on physical, biological and ecological grounds. Although water in the air makes up only 0.001 per cent of the total amount of water in the global system, it influences the behaviour of the atmosphere on scales ranging from microscopic to global ...
