Comparison of NCEP Multisensor Precipitation Estimates with Independent Gauge Data over the Eastern United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: auge-calibrated radar estimates of daily precipitation are compared with daily observed values of precipitation from National Weather Service (NWS) Cooperative Observer Network (COOP) stations to evaluate the multisensor ...
Evaluation of a High-Resolution SPI for Monitoring Local Drought Severity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: standardized precipitation index (SPI) that uses high-resolution, daily estimates of precipitation from the National Weather Service over the contiguous United States has been developed and is referred to as HRD SPI. There ...
Comparison of Collocated Automated (NCECONet) and Manual (COOP) Climate Observations in North Carolina
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The National Weather Service's Cooperative Observer Program (COOP) is a valuable climate data resource that provides manually observed information on temperature and precipitation across the nation. These data are part of ...
Calculating A Daily Normal Temperature Range That Reflects Daily Temperature Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Normal temperatures, which are calculated by the National Climatic Data Center for locations across the country, are quality-controlled, smoothed 30-yr-average temperatures. They are used in many facets of media, industry, ...

Simulation of Convective Initiation during IHOP_2002 Using the Flux-Adjusting Surface Data Assimilation System (FASDAS)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Flux-Adjusting Surface Data Assimilation System (FASDAS) uses the surface observational analysis to directly assimilate surface layer temperature and water vapor mixing ratio and to indirectly assimilate soil moisture ...
Visually Communicating Future Climate in a Web Environment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: While there is growing demand for use of climate model projections to understand the potential impacts of future climate on resources, there is a lack of effective visuals that convey the range of possible climates across ...
