Abstract: w much precipitation falls over land? Beginning with regional observations in preindustrial times, we focus particularly on how this question was answered for the world before the age of digitization.

Abstract: AbstractThere is a large amount of documented weather information all over the world, including Asia (e.g., old diaries, log books, etc.). The ultimate goal of this study is to reconstruct historical weather by deriving ...

Abstract: AbstractQuantifying time-averaged rain rate, or rain accumulation, on subhourly time scales is essential for various application studies requiring rain estimates. This study proposes a novel idea to estimate subhourly ...

Abstract: nthropogenic activities have been significantly perturbing global freshwater flows and groundwater reserves. Despite numerous advances in the development of land surface models (LSMs) and global terrestrial hydrological ...

Abstract: s a basic form of climate patterns, the diurnal cycle of precipitation (DCP) can provide a key test bed for model reliability and development. In this study, the DCP over West Africa was simulated by the National Centers ...

Abstract: A comprehensive estimation of water budget components, particularly groundwater storage (GWS) and fluxes, is crucial. In this study, we evaluate the terrestrial water budget of the Donga basin (Benin, West Africa), as ...

Abstract: The latest snow model intercomparison identified the same modelling issues as previous iterations over 23 years. Lack of new insights are attributed partly to human errors and intercomparison projects design.Twenty-seven ...
