High-Resolution Daytime Cloud Observations for Northwestern Mexico from GOES-7 Satellite Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The first stage in a program of research to develop a regional model capable of describing the hydrology of semiarid areas of northwest Mexico and southwest United States, using remotely sensed data, is described in this ...
Analysis of 2002 and 2003 Warm-Season Precipitation from the North American Monsoon Experiment Event Rain Gauge Network
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Analyses of rainfall characteristics and their linkage to physiographic features are made from the North American monsoon experiment (NAME) Event Rain Gauge Network (NERN) in northwest Mexico. The findings are based on the ...
Preliminary Diagnostics from a New Event-Based Precipitation Monitoring System in Support of the North American Monsoon Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The purpose of this note is to present preliminary findings from a new event-based surface rain gauge network in the region of northwest Mexico. This region is characterized as semiarid, owing the largest percentage of its ...
Spatial and Temporal Patterns of Precipitation Intensity as Observed by the NAME Event Rain Gauge Network from 2002 to 2004
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Detailed information on the spatial and temporal characteristics of precipitation intensity from the mountainous region of northwest Mexico has, until recently, been lacking. As part of the 2004 North American Monsoon ...
Changes in Vegetation Condition and Surface Fluxes during NAME 2004
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The vegetation in the core region of the North American monsoon (NAM) system changes dramatically after the onset of the summer rains so that large changes may be expected in the surface fluxes of radiation, heat, and ...
