On the Detection of Remotely Sensed Soil Moisture Extremes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Methods to Calculate Precipitation from Weighing-Bucket Gauges with Redundant Depth Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) monitors precipitation using a well-shielded Geonor T-200B gauge. To ensure the quality and continuity of the data record, the USCRN adopted an innovative approach to monitor ...
Observational Perspectives from U.S. Climate Reference Network (USCRN) and Cooperative Observer Program (COOP) Network: Temperature and Precipitation Comparison
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he U.S. Cooperative Observer Program (COOP) network was formed in the early 1890s to provide daily observations of temperature and precipitation. However, manual observations from naturally aspirated temperature sensors ...
An Evaluation of the North American Regional Reanalysis Simulated Soil Moisture Conditions during the 2011–13 Drought Period
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ccurate and timely information on soil moisture conditions is an important component to effectively prepare for the damaging aspects of hydrological extremes. The combination of sparsely dense in situ networks and shallow ...
Exploring the Use of Standardized Soil Moisture as a Drought Indicator
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Using Ancillary Information from Radar-Based Observations and Rain Gauges to Identify Error and Bias
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Impacts of Small-Scale Urban Encroachment on Air Temperature Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractA field experiment was performed in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, with four instrumented towers placed over grass at increasing distances (4, 30, 50, 124, and 300 m) from a built-up area. Stations were aligned in such a ...
The Relationship between the Madden–Julian Oscillation (MJO) and Southeastern New England Snowfall
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he winter of 2014/15 brought record snow totals to portions of southeastern New England. Additionally, over 90% of Boston Logan Airport snowfall during the winter fell during phases 7 and 8 of the Madden?Julian oscillation ...
A Description and Evaluation of U.S. Climate Reference Network Standardized Soil Moisture Dataset
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe interpretation of in situ or remotely sensed soil moisture data for drought monitoring is challenged by the sensitivity of these observations to local soil characteristics and seasonal precipitation patterns. ...
Global Evaluation of Gridded Satellite Precipitation Products from the NOAA Climate Data Record Program
