100-Year Lower Mississippi Floods in a Global Climate Model: Characteristics and Future Changes
(American Meteorological Society, 2018)AbstractFloods in the Mississippi basin can have large negative societal, natural, and economic impacts. Understanding the drivers of floods, now and in the future, is relevant for risk management and infrastructure-planning ... -
2DVD Data Revisited: Multifractal Insights into Cuts of the Spatiotemporal Rainfall Process
(American Meteorological Society, 2014)ata collected during four heavy rainfall events that occurred in Ardèche (France) with the help of a 2D video disdrometer (2DVD) are used to investigate the structure of the raindrop distribution in both space and time. A ... -

A 1–10-Day Ensemble Forecasting Scheme for the Major River Basins of Bangladesh: Forecasting Severe Floods of 2003–07
(American Meteorological Society, 2010)This paper describes a fully automated scheme that has provided calibrated 1?10-day ensemble river discharge forecasts and predictions of severe flooding of the Brahmaputra and Ganges Rivers as they flow into Bangladesh; ... -
A 36-yr Climatological Description of the Evaporative Sources of Warm-Season Precipitation in the Mississippi River Basin
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)The terrestrial and oceanic sources of moisture that supply warm-season rainfall to the Mississippi River basin and its subbasins are examined over a 36-yr period (1963?98). Using hourly observed precipitation, National ... -
A 440-Year Reconstruction of Heavy Precipitation in California from Blue Oak Tree Rings

A Bayesian Approach to Predictor Selection for Seasonal Streamflow Forecasting
(American Meteorological Society, 2011)tatistical methods commonly used for forecasting climate and streamflows require the selection of appropriate predictors. Poorly designed predictor selection procedures can result in poor forecasts for independent events. ... -
A Bayesian Framework for Probabilistic Seasonal Drought Forecasting
(American Meteorological Society, 2013)easonal drought forecasting is presented within a multivariate probabilistic framework. The standardized streamflow index (SSI) is used to characterize hydrologic droughts with different severities across the Gunnison River ... -
A Bayesian Hidden Markov Model of Daily Precipitation over South and East Asia
(American Meteorological Society, 2015)Bayesian hidden Markov model (HMM) for climate downscaling of multisite daily precipitation is presented. A generalized linear model (GLM) component allows exogenous variables to directly influence the distributional ... -
A Bias-Corrected Precipitation Climatology for China
(American Meteorological Society, 2004)This paper presents the results of bias corrections of Chinese standard precipitation gauge (CSPG) measurements for wind-induced undercatch, a trace amount of precipitation, and wetting loss. Long-term daily data of ... -
A Bias-Corrected Siberian Regional Precipitation Climatology
(American Meteorological Society, 2001)A methodology for correcting the Tretyakov gauge-measured daily precipitation for wind-induced undercatch and trace amounts of precipitation is presented and applied at 61 climate stations in Siberian regions for 1986 to ... -
A Brief Evaluation of Precipitation from the North American Regional Reanalysis
(American Meteorological Society, 2007)Several aspects of the precipitation climatology from the North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR) are analyzed and compared with two other reanalyses and one set of gridded observations over a domain encompassing the ... -
A Changing Climatology of Precipitation Persistence across the United States Using Information-Based Measures
(American Meteorological Society, 2019)AbstractThe sequencing, or persistence, of daily precipitation influences variability in streamflow, soil moisture, and vegetation states. As these factors influence water availability and ecosystem health, it is important ... -
