Evaluating Satellite Precipitation Error Propagation in Runoff Simulations of Mountainous Basins
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study investigates the error characteristics of six quasi-global satellite precipitation products and their error propagation in flow simulations for a range of mountainous basin scales (255?6967 km2) and two different ...
Error Analysis of Satellite Precipitation Products in Mountainous Basins
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ccurate quantitative precipitation estimation over mountainous basins is of great importance because of their susceptibility to hazards such as flash floods, shallow landslides, and debris flows, triggered by heavy ...
A Simulation Approach for Validation of a Brightband Correction Method
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Brightband effects are one of the more important causes of vertical variability of reflectivity and severely affect the accuracy of rainfall estimates from ground-based radar. Monte Carlo simulation experiments are performed ...
Using High-Resolution Satellite Rainfall Products to Simulate a Major Flash Flood Event in Northern Italy
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ffective flash flood warning procedures are usually hampered by observational limitations of precipitation over mountainous basins where flash floods occur. Satellite rainfall estimates are available over complex terrain ...
Understanding the Scale Relationships of Uncertainty Propagation of Satellite Rainfall through a Distributed Hydrologic Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
