Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Key Findings: An assimilation methodology is established for the Tomorrow.io microwave sounder (TMS) flying on CubeSats in sun‐synchronous and inclined orbits, and in all cloud scenes. The TMS has a significant impact on weather forecast lead times up to 3 days in the Tropics in a research‐quality numerical weather prediction setting, and yields water ...

Long-term snow and weather observations at Weissfluhjoch and its relation to other high-altitude observatories in the Alps [PDF]
, 2018 Snow and weather observations at Weissfluhjoch were initiated in 1936, when a research team set a snow stake and started digging snow pits on a plateau located at 2,540m asl above Davos, Switzerland.

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Though many studies have shown potential benefit in assimilating all‐sky infrared radiances from geostationary satellites, at numerical weather prediction centres it is still common practice to assimilate clear‐sky radiances. We present the operationalization of the all‐sky assimilation of the spinning enhanced visible and infrared imager (SEVIRI ...

Multimedia on the Mountaintop: Using public snow images to improve water systems operation [PDF]
, 2016 This paper merges multimedia and environmental research to verify the utility of public web images for improving water management in periods of water scarcity, an increasingly critical event due to climate change. A multimedia processing pipeline fetches

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.Short‐term extreme rainfall can be produced by the variation of low‐level warm moist airflow during mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) approaching another. The cold outflow of the rapidly moving MCS intensifies the warm moist airflow in front, enhancing the convergence and ascending motion in the quasi‐stationary MCS.

Modelling runoff and erosion in agricultural soil: application of ICECREAM model to a field site in southern Finland [PDF]
, 2006 The hydrological submodel of ICECREAM, which is the Finnish version of CREAMS/GLEAMS model was calibrated and validated against surface runoff and snow water equivalent data from a sloping clayey field under small grain crop cultivation.

The spatial variability of snow water equivalent [PDF]
, 2007 Abstract. The spatial distribution of snow water equivalent (SWE) is modelled as a two parameter gamma distribution. The parameters of the distribution are dynamical in that they are functions of the number of accumulation and ablation events and the temporal correlation of accumulation and ablation events. The estimated spatial variability is compared
