RISThe Influence of Hydrologic Modeling on the Predicted Local Weather: Two-Way Coupling of a Mesoscale Weather Prediction Model and a Land Surface Hydrologic Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-way coupling of the operational mesoscale weather prediction model known as Lokal Modell (LM; German Weather Service) with the land surface hydrologic ?TOPMODEL?-Based Land Surface?Atmosphere Transfer Scheme (TOPLATS; ...
Evaluating GCM Land Surface Hydrology Parameterizations by Computing River Discharges Using a Runoff Routing Model: Application to the Mississippi Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: To relate general circulation model (GCM) hydrologic output to readily available river hydrographic data, a runoff routing scheme that routes gridded runoffs through regional- or continental-scale river drainage basins is ...
Evaluation of AMSR-E-Derived Soil Moisture Retrievals Using Ground-Based and PSR Airborne Data during SMEX02
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A Land Surface Microwave Emission Model (LSMEM) is used to derive soil moisture estimates over Iowa during the Soil Moisture Experiment 2002 (SMEX02) field campaign, using brightness temperature data from the Advanced ...
Global and Continental Drought in the Second Half of the Twentieth Century: Severity–Area–Duration Analysis and Temporal Variability of Large-Scale Events
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Using observation-driven simulations of global terrestrial hydrology and a cluster algorithm that searches for spatially connected regions of soil moisture, the authors identified 296 large-scale drought events (greater ...
Multidecadal High-Resolution Hydrologic Modeling of the Arkansas–Red River Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Land surface heterogeneity and its effects on surface processes have been a concern to hydrologists and climate scientists for the past several decades. The contrast between the fine spatial scales at which heterogeneity ...
Bias Correction of Historical and Future Simulations of Precipitation and Temperature for China from CMIP5 Models
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ABSTRACTIn this study, the equidistant cumulative distribution function (EDCDF) quantile-based mapping method was used to develop bias-corrected and downscaled monthly precipitation and temperature for China at 0.5° ? 0.5° ...
Modeling Evapotranspiration during SMACEX: Comparing Two Approaches for Local- and Regional-Scale Prediction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Surface Energy Balance System (SEBS) model was developed to estimate land surface fluxes using remotely sensed data and available meteorology. In this study, a dual assessment of SEBS is performed using two independent, ...
The Effect of Soil Thermal Conductivity Parameterization on Surface Energy Fluxes and Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The sensitivity of sensible and latent heat fluxes and surface temperatures to the parameterization of the soil thermal conductivity is demonstrated using a soil vegetation atmosphere transfer scheme (SVATS) applied to ...
Using TRMM/TMI to Retrieve Surface Soil Moisture over the Southern United States from 1998 to 2002
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Passive microwave remote sensing has been recognized as a potential method for measuring soil moisture. Combined with field observations and hydrological modeling brightness temperatures can be used to infer soil moisture ...
Forecasting the Hydroclimatic Signature of the 2015/16 El Niño Event on the Western United States
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ry conditions in 2013?16 in much of the western United States were responsible for severe drought and led to an exceptional fire season in the Pacific Northwest in 2015. Winter 2015/16 was forecasted to relieve drought in ...
