Interaction of the westerlies with the Tibetan Plateau in determining the Mei-Yu termination [PDF]

, 2020
This study explores how the termination of the mei-yu is dynamically linked to the westerlies impinging on the Tibetan Plateau. It is found that the mei-yu stage terminates when the maximum upper-tropospheric westerlies shift beyond the northern edge of ...

Patterns of India monsoon rainfall anomalies

Tellus A: Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 1983
Pattern characteristics of annual rainfall anomalies over India during 1900–72 are studied from precipitation records of 31 regional subdivisions and series of annual cyclone frequency and number of break monsoon days. Methods include spatial correlation, pattern stratification, and principal component and spectral analyses.

An Alternative to PCA for Estimating Dominant Patterns of Climate Variability and Extremes, with Application to U.S. and China Seasonal Rainfall

Atmosphere, 2020
Floods and droughts are driven, in part, by spatial patterns of extreme rainfall. Heat waves are driven by spatial patterns of extreme temperature. It is therefore of interest to design statistical methodologies that allow the rapid identification of ...

Identifying monthly rainfall erosivity patterns using hourly rainfall data across India [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Abstract Rainfall erosivity is a key dynamic factor of water erosion estimation, with a significant spatial and temporal variation. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of the spatial patterns and monthly distribution of rainfall erosivity across India, using data from 261 hourly and 2,525 monthly rainfall stations covering the period

Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.
