RISUse of Medium-Range Numerical Weather Prediction Model Output to Produce Forecasts of Streamflow
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper examines an archive containing over 40 years of 8-day atmospheric forecasts over the contiguous United States from the NCEP reanalysis project to assess the possibilities for using medium-range numerical weather ...
Rain-on-Snow Events in the Western United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Rain-on-snow events pose a significant flood hazard in the western United States. This study provides a description of the spatial and temporal variability of the frequency of rain-on-snow events for 4318 sites in the ...
Evaluation of Statistically Downscaled GCM Output as Input for Hydrological and Stream Temperature Simulation in the Apalachicola–Chattahoochee–Flint River Basin (1961–99)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he accuracy of statistically downscaled general circulation model (GCM) simulations of daily surface climate for historical conditions (1961?99) and the implications when they are used to drive hydrologic and stream ...
Watershed-Scale Response to Climate Change through the Twenty-First Century for Selected Basins across the United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he hydrologic response of different climate-change emission scenarios for the twenty-first century were evaluated in 14 basins from different hydroclimatic regions across the United States using the Precipitation-Runoff ...
Impacts of Climate Change on the Growing Season in the United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nderstanding the effects of climate change on the vegetative growing season is key to quantifying future hydrologic water budget conditions. The U.S. Geological Survey modeled changes in future growing season length at 14 ...
Effects of Baseline Conditions on the Simulated Hydrologic Response to Projected Climate Change
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: hanges in temperature and precipitation projected from five general circulation models, using one late-twentieth-century and three twenty-first-century emission scenarios, were downscaled to three different baseline ...
Characterizing Climate-Change Impacts on the 1.5-yr Flood Flow in Selected Basins across the United States: A Probabilistic Approach
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he U.S. Geological Survey Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS) model was applied to basins in 14 different hydroclimatic regions to determine the sensitivity and variability of the freshwater resources of the United ...
Hydrologic Effects of Urbanization and Climate Change on the Flint River Basin, Georgia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he potential effects of long-term urbanization and climate change on the freshwater resources of the Flint River basin were examined by using the Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS). PRMS is a deterministic, ...
Do Downscaled General Circulation Models Reliably Simulate Historical Climatic Conditions?
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe accuracy of statistically downscaled (SD) general circulation model (GCM) simulations of monthly surface climate for historical conditions (1950?2005) was assessed for the conterminous United States (CONUS). ...
Implications of the Methodological Choices for Hydrologic Portrayals of Climate Change over the Contiguous United States: Statistically Downscaled Forcing Data and Hydrologic Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ontinental-domain assessments of climate change impacts on water resources typically rely on statistically downscaled climate model outputs to force hydrologic models at a finer spatial resolution. This study examines the ...
