he existing French Application Radar à la Météorologie Infrasynoptique (ARAMIS) operational radar network covers a vast majority of the country of France, yet like many national networks, gaps in coverage are present in ...

everal warm season, late-afternoon precipitation events are simulated over the Chesapeake Bay watershed using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model at three different resolutions. The onset and peak of surface-based ...

n the United States, tornado activity of a given year is usually assessed in terms of the total number of human-reported tornadoes. Such assessments fail to account for the seldom-acknowledged fact that an active (or ...

patial analog techniques consist in identifying locations whose historical climate is similar to the anticipated future climate at a reference location. In the process of identifying analogs, one key step is the quantification ...

n 2012 the Météo France metropolitan operational radar network consists of 24 radars operating at C and S bands. In addition, a network of four X-band gap-filler radars is being deployed in the French Alps. The network ...

limate data often suffer from artificial inhomogeneities, resulting from documented or undocumented events. For a time series to be used with confidence in climate analysis, it should only be characterized by variations ...

rop water stress monitoring by remote sensing has been the focus of numerous studies. In this paper, specifically red (630?690 nm) and shortwave infrared (SWIR; 1550?1750 nm) wavelength bands are identified to monitor ...

aboratory experiments have demonstrated a correlation between the rate of heat loss q? from an experimental fluid to the air above and the standard deviation σ of the thermal variability in images of the fluid surface. ...

his paper describes a new computationally efficient and statistically robust sampling method for generating dynamically downscaled climatologies. It is based on a Monte Carlo method coupled with stratified sampling. A small ...
