RISNorthern Hemisphere Climatology and Trends of Statistical Moments Documented from GHCN-Daily Surface Air Temperature Station Data from 1950 to 2010
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he first four statistical moments and their trends are calculated for the average daily surface air temperature (SAT) from 1950 to 2010 using the Global Historical Climatology Network?Daily station data for each season ...
The Effects of Gridding Algorithms on the Statistical Moments and Their Trends of Daily Surface Air Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper explores the effects from averaging weather station data onto a grid on the first four statistical moments of daily minimum and maximum surface air temperature (SAT) anomalies over the entire globe. The Global ...
Uncertainties, Trends, and Hottest and Coldest Years of U.S. Surface Air Temperature since 1895: An Update Based on the USHCN V2 TOB Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper estimates the sampling error variances of gridded monthly U.S. Historical Climatology Network, version 2 (USHCN V2), time-of-observation-biases (TOB)-adjusted data. The analysis of mean surface air temperature ...
Interpolation of 1961–97 Daily Temperature and Precipitation Data onto Alberta Polygons of Ecodistrict and Soil Landscapes of Canada
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Soil quality models developed for ecodistrict polygons (EDP) and the polygons of the soil landscapes of Canada (SLC) to monitor the concentration of soil organic matter require daily climate data as an important input. The ...
Sampling Errors in Rainfall Estimates by Multiple Satellites
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper examines the sampling characteristics of combining data collected by several low-orbiting satellites attempting to estimate the space?time average of rain rates. The several satellites can have different orbital ...
Superensemble Statistical Forecasting of Monthly Precipitation over the Contiguous United States, with Improvements from Ocean-Area Precipitation Predictors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: xtended precipitation forecasts, with leads of weeks to seasons, are valuable for planning water use and are produced by the U.S. National Weather Service. Forecast skill tends to be low and any skill improvement could be ...
Spectral Approach to Optimal Estimation of the Global Average Temperature
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Making use of EOF analysis and statistical optimal averaging techniques, the problem of random sampling error in estimating the global average temperature by a network of surface stations has been investigated. The EOF ...
Multivariate Regression Reconstruction and Its Sampling Error for the Quasi-Global Annual Precipitation from 1900 to 2011
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper provides a multivariate regression method to estimate the sampling errors of the annual quasi-global (75°S?75°N) precipitation reconstructed by an empirical orthogonal function (EOF) expansion. The Global ...
Evaluation of Sampling Errors of Precipitation from Spaceborne and Ground Sensors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The spatial and temporal characteristics of rainfall over Oklahoma and Kansas are analyzed in this paper using the raingage data collected during the Preliminary Regional Experiment for STORM-Central (PRESTORM). The ...
The Ground-Truth Problem for Satellite Estimates of Rain Rate
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper a scheme is proposed to use a point raingage to compare contemporaneous measurements of rain rate from a single-field-of-view estimate based on a satellite remote sensor such as a microwave radiometer. Even ...
