Abstract: uality control is a particularly demanding problem for micrometeorological studies in complex environments. With the transition to electronic sensing and storage of climate data in high temporal resolution, traditional ...

Abstract: This study examines the seasonal and diurnal dynamics of convective cloud entities?small cells and a mesoscale convective complex?like pattern?in the foothills of the tropical eastern Andes. The investigation is based on ...

Abstract: The potential of rainfall-rate assignment using Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) Spinning Enhanced Visible and Infrared Instrument (SEVIRI) data is investigated. For this purpose, a new conceptual model for precipitation ...

Abstract: AbstractInformation on the spatiotemporal rainfall occurrence, its microphysical characteristics, and its reflectivity?rainfall (Z?R) relations required to provide rainfall mapping based on rain radar data is limited for ...

Abstract: The distinction made by satellite data between ground fog and low stratus is still an open problem. A proper detection scheme would need to make a determination between low stratus thickness and top height. Based on this ...

Abstract: eather radar networks are indispensable tools for forecasting and disaster prevention in industrialized countries. However, they are far less common in countries of South America, which frequently suffer from an underdeveloped ...
