Real-Time Correction of Spatially Nonuniform Bias in Radar Rainfall Data Using Rain Gauge Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A procedure for real-time correction of spatially nonuniform bias in radar rainfall data using rain gauge measurements is described. Developed to complement the existing gauge-based bias correction procedures used in the ...
Real-Time Variational Assimilation of Hydrologic and Hydrometeorological Data into Operational Hydrologic Forecasting
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Variational assimilation (VAR) of hydrologic and hydrometeorological data into operational hydrologic forecasting is explored. The data assimilated are the hourly real-time observations of streamflow and precipitation, and ...
A Nonparametric Postprocessor for Bias Correction of Hydrometeorological and Hydrologic Ensemble Forecasts
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes a technique for quantifying and removing biases from ensemble forecasts of hydrometeorological and hydrologic variables. The technique makes no a priori assumptions about the distributional form of the ...
Characteristics of Reprocessed Hydrometeorological Automated Data System (HADS) Hourly Precipitation Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Hydrometeorological Automated Data System (HADS) is a real-time data acquisition, processing, and distribution system operated by the Office of Hydrologic Development (OHD) of NOAA?s National Weather Service (NWS). The ...
A Nonhomogeneous Regression-Based Statistical Postprocessing Scheme for Generating Probabilistic Quantitative Precipitation Forecast
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Verification of Precipitation Forecasts from NCEP’s Short-Range Ensemble Forecast (SREF) System with Reference to Ensemble Streamflow Prediction Using Lumped Hydrologic Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: recipitation forecasts from the Short-Range Ensemble Forecast (SREF) system of the National Centers for Environmental Prediction (NCEP) are verified for the period April 2006?August 2010. Verification is conducted for 10?20 ...
Real-Time Adjustment of Range-Dependent Biases in WSR-88D Rainfall Estimates due to Nonuniform Vertical Profile of Reflectivity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A procedure for real-time adjustment of range-dependent biases in Weather Surveillance Radar-1988 Doppler version (WSR-88D) rainfall estimates due to nonuniform vertical profile of reflectivity is proposed. Using volume-scan ...
Utility of SCaMPR Satellite versus Ground-Based Quantitative Precipitation Estimates in Operational Flood Forecasting: The Effects of TRMM Data Ingest
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the utility of satellite-based quantitative precipitation estimates (QPEs) from the Self-Calibrating Multivariate Precipitation Retrieval (SCaMPR) algorithm for hydrologic prediction. In this work, two ...
The WSR-88D Rainfall Algorithm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A detailed description of the operational WSR-88D rainfall estimation algorithm is presented. This algorithm, called the Precipitation Processing System, produces radar-derived rainfall products in real time for forecasters ...
Data Assimilation in Hydrologic Routing: Impact of Model Error and Sensor Placement on Flood Forecasting
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Diverse hydrologic and hydraulic models of varying complexities have been proposed in the past few decades to accurately predict the water levels and discharges along rivers. Among them, the hydrologic routing models are ...
