RISJoint Variability of Global Runoff and Global Sea Surface Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Global land surface runoff and sea surface temperatures (SST) are analyzed to identify the primary modes of variability of these hydroclimatic data for the period 1905?2002. A monthly water-balance model first is used with ...
Recent Declines in Western U.S. Snowpack in the Context of Twentieth-Century Climate Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A monthly snow accumulation and melt model was used with monthly Precipitation-elevation Regressions on Independent Slopes Model (PRISM) temperature and precipitation data to generate time series of 1 April snow water ...
Variability Common to Global Sea Surface Temperatures and Runoff in the Conterminous United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ingular value decomposition (SVD) is used to identify the variability common to global sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and water-balance-modeled water-year (WY) runoff in the conterminous United States (CONUS) for the ...
Warming is Driving Decreases in Snow Fractions While Runoff Efficiency Remains Mostly Unchanged in Snow-Covered Areas of the Western United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWinter snowfall and accumulation is an important component of the surface water supply in the western United States. In these areas, increasing winter temperatures T associated with global warming can influence the ...
Evidence that Recent Warming is Reducing Upper Colorado River Flows
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe upper Colorado River basin (UCRB) is one of the primary sources of water for the western United States, and increasing temperatures likely will elevate the risk of reduced water supply in the basin. Although ...
Basinwide Hydroclimatic Drought in the Colorado River Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Colorado River basin (CRB) supplies water to approximately 40 million people and is essential to hydropower generation, agriculture, and industry. In this study, a monthly water balance model is used to compute ...
