RISDaily NDVI Relationship to Cloud Cover
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) cloud index (NCI) was derived from Pathfinder Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) daily NDVI data and compared with observed cloud amounts and a sunshine ...
Changes in Cloud Cover, Precipitation, and Summer Temperature in North America from 1982 to 2009
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n North America (NA), trends in summer surface air temperatures vary on decadal time scales, and some regions have temperature trends that exhibit a lack of warming in 1982?2009. From a surface energy balance perspective, ...
Modeling the Impacts of Future Climate Change on Irrigation over China: Sensitivity to Adjusted Projections
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecause of the limitations of coarse-resolution general circulation models (GCMs), delta change (DC) methods are generally used to derive scenarios of future climate as inputs into impact models. In this paper, the impact ...
Recent Changes in the Moisture Source of Precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractEvidence has suggested a wetting trend over part of the Tibetan Plateau (TP) in recent decades, although there are large uncertainties in this trend due to sparse observations. Examining the change in the moisture ...
European Hot Summers Associated with a Reduction of Cloudiness
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: pronounced summer warming is observed in Europe since the 1980s that has been accompanied by an increase in the occurrence of heat waves. Water deficit that strongly reduces surface latent cooling is a widely accepted ...
Hydrological Cycles Change in the Yellow River Basin during the Last Half of the Twentieth Century
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A distributed biosphere hydrological (DBH) model system was used to explore the internal relations among the climate system, human society, and the hydrological system in the Yellow River basin, and to interpret possible ...
The Influence of Precipitation Variability and Partial Irrigation within Grid Cells on a Hydrological Simulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of natural and anthropogenic heterogeneity on a hydrological simulation are evaluated using a distributed biosphere hydrological model (DBHM) system. The DBHM embeds a biosphere model into a distributed ...
Real-Time Precipitation Estimation Based on Index Station Percentiles
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Operational hydrologic models are typically calibrated using meteorological inputs derived from retrospective station data that are commonly not available in real time. Inconsistencies between the calibration and (generally ...
Soil Moisture Drought Monitoring and Forecasting Using Satellite and Climate Model Data over Southwestern China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this paper, an experimental soil moisture drought monitoring and seasonal forecasting framework based on the Variable Infiltration Capacity model (VIC) over southwestern China (SW) is presented. Satellite precipitation ...
A Long-Term Land Surface Hydrologic Fluxes and States Dataset for China
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: long-term consistent and comprehensive dataset of land surface hydrologic fluxes and states will greatly benefit the analysis of land surface variables, their changes and interactions, and the assessment of land?atmosphere ...
