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

Progress in Earth and Planetary Science, 2022 Climate is one of the main factors for rice crop growth. Understanding the relationship between climate variability and rice production during the period from 1901 to 1939 in Burma can give a clear picture of the impact of climate variability on rice ...

Climate-informed stochastic hydrological modeling: Incorporating decadal-scale variability using paleo data [PDF]
, 2011 A hierarchical framework for incorporating modes of climate variability into stochastic simulations of hydrological data is developed, termed the climate‐informed multi‐time scale stochastic (CIMSS) framework.

Child growth sensitivity to rainfall variability [PDF]
Science, 2017 Malnutrition Agricultural production and crop diversity are highly sensitive to climate and local weather variables. To assess the sensitivity of child growth and weight gain to precipitation, Shiveley combined data for Uganda and Nepal collected over 30 years from several sources and controlled for multiple covariates. Positive anthropometric outcomes

Intraseasonal Rainfall Variability over Madagascar
Monthly Weather Review, 2016 Using daily rain gauge records for Madagascar and nearby islands, this paper investigates rainfall intraseasonal variability at local and regional scales during the austral summer season (November–February), as well as the respective influences of recurrent convective regimes over the southwest Indian Ocean (SWIO) and the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO)
