Mean Rainfall Patterns for the Three Phases of GATE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As a part of the GARP Atlantic Tropical Experiment (GATE), quantitative precipitation measurements were made during the summer of 1974 with four C-band digital radars complemented by shipboard raingages. Isohyetal maps ...
Quantitative Precipitation Forecast Techniques for Use in Hydrologic Forecasting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Quantitative hydrologic forecasting usually requires knowledge of the spatial and temporal distribution of precipitation. First, it is important to accurately measure the precipitation falling over a particular watershed ...
Relationships between Large-Scale Motion and Convective Precipitation During GATE
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Upper air and surface data from the GARP Atlantic Tropical Experiment (GATE) are used to examine the interrelationships between convective-scale precipitation and the larger scale wind field. The upper air winds from the ...
