Comparisons of Time Series of Annual Mean Surface Air Temperature for China since the 1900s: Observations, Model Simulations, and Extended Reanalysis
(American Meteorological Society, 2016)ime series of global or regional average surface air temperature (SAT) are fundamental to climate change studies. A number of studies have developed several national and regional SAT series for China, but because of the ... -
Maintenance keeps radars running
(American Meteorological Society, 2017)eather radars provide us with colorful images of storms, their development and movement but from time to time the radars fail and we are left without data. To minimize these disruptions, owners of weather radars carry out ... -
