Summer Soil Moisture Spatiotemporal Variability in Southeastern Arizona
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: oil moisture is important for many applications, but its measurements are lacking globally and even regionally. The Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed (WGEW) in southeastern Arizona has measured near-surface 5-cm soil ...
Constraining Land Surface and Atmospheric Parameters of a Locally Coupled Model Using Observational Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In coupled land surface?atmosphere modeling, the possibility and benefits of constraining model parameters using observational data bear investigation. Using the locally coupled NCAR Single-column Community Climate Model ...
Spatiotemporal Variability of Summer Precipitation in Southeastern Arizona
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Walnut Gulch Experimental Watershed (WGEW) in southeastern Arizona covers ~150 km2 and receives the majority of its annual precipitation from highly variable and intermittent summer storms during the North American ...
The South American Land Data Assimilation System (SALDAS) 5-Yr Retrospective Atmospheric Forcing Datasets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The definition and derivation of a 5-yr, 0.125°, 3-hourly atmospheric forcing dataset that is appropriate for use in a Land Data Assimilation System operating across South America is described. Because surface observations ...
An Agenda for Land Surface Hydrology Research and a Call for the Second International Hydrological Decade
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hydrologic research at the interface between the atmosphere and land surface is undergoing a dramatic change in focus, driven by new societal priorities, emerging technologies, and better understanding of the earth system. ...
