Intercomparison of Rainfall Estimates from Radar, Satellite, Gauge, and Combinations for a Season of Record Rainfall
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Rainfall products from radar, satellite, rain gauges, and combinations have been evaluated for a season of record rainfall in a heavily instrumented study domain in Oklahoma. Algorithm performance is evaluated in terms of ...
Toward a User-Centered Design of a Weather Forecasting Decision-Support Tool
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: azard Services is a software toolkit that integrates information management, hazard alerting, and communication functions into a single user interface. When complete, National Weather Service forecasters across the United ...
Evaluation of Incremental Improvements to Quantitative Precipitation Estimates in Complex Terrain
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Advanced remote sensing and in situ observing systems employed during the Hydrometeorological Testbed experiment on the American River basin near Sacramento, California, provided a unique opportunity to evaluate correction ...
Impacts of Polarimetric Radar Observations on Hydrologic Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Rainfall estimated from the polarimetric prototype of the Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler [WSR-88D (KOUN)] was evaluated using a dense Micronet rain gauge network for nine events on the Ft. Cobb research watershed ...
Hydrologic Evaluation of Rainfall Estimates from Radar, Satellite, Gauge, and Combinations on Ft. Cobb Basin, Oklahoma
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study evaluates rainfall estimates from the Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD), operational rain gauges, Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multisatellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA), and Precipitation ...
CONUS-Wide Evaluation of National Weather Service Flash Flood Guidance Products
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study quantifies the skill of the National Weather Service?s (NWS) flash flood guidance (FFG) product. Generated by River Forecast Centers (RFCs) across the United States, local NWS Weather Forecast Offices compare ...
Hydrological Modeling and Capacity Building in the Republic of Namibia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Republic of Namibia, located along the arid and semi-arid coast of southwest Africa, is highly dependent on reliable forecasts of surface and groundwater storage and fluxes. Since 2009, the University of Oklahoma (OU) ...
The HMT Multi-Radar Multi-Sensor Hydro Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: here are numerous challenges with the forecasting and detection of flash floods, one of the deadliest weather phenomena in the United States. Statistical metrics of flash flood warnings over recent years depict a generally ...
Evaluation and Uncertainty Estimation of NOAA/NSSL Next-Generation National Mosaic Quantitative Precipitation Estimation Product (Q2) over the Continental United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: uantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) products from the next-generation National Mosaic and QPE system (Q2) are cross-compared to the operational, radar-only product of the National Weather Service (Stage II) using ...
