Classifying Urban Rainfall Extremes Using Weather Radar Data: An Application to the Greater New York Area
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: xtreme rainfall events, specifically in urban areas, have dramatic impacts on society and can lead to loss of life and property. Despite these hazards, little is known about the city-scale variability of heavy rainfall ...
A Global Analysis of Land Surface Temperature Diurnal Cycle Using MODIS Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractDiurnal variations of land surface temperature (LST) play a vital role in a wide range of applications such as climate change assessment, land?atmosphere interactions, and heat-related health issues in urban regions. ...
Estimation of Consistent Global Microwave Land Surface Emissivity from AMSR-E and AMSR2 Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractAccurate estimation of passive microwave land surface emissivity (LSE) is crucial for numerical weather prediction model data assimilation, for microwave retrievals of land precipitation and atmospheric profiles, ...
