A Methodology for Rain Gauge Network Evaluation Considering the Altitude of Rain Gauge

Rain Gauge Station Network Design for Hormozgan Province in Iran

A rain gauge network should serve general as well as specific purposes such as water supply, hydropowergeneration, flood forecasting, irrigation, and flood control. The level of accuracy a network can achieve depends onthe number and locations of gauges in the network. In this study, a rain gauge network was designed for Hormozganprovince in the south of Iran. Monthly rainfall totals from 124 r...

Evaluation of Tipping Bucket Rain Gauge Performance and Data Quality

Evaluation of PERSIANN-CCS Rainfall Measurement Using the NAME Event Rain Gauge Network

Robust validation of the space–time structure of remotely sensed precipitation estimates is critical to improving their quality and confident application in water cycle–related research. In this work, the performance of the Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Networks-Cloud Classification System (PERSIANN-CCS) precipitation product is evaluated agai...

Distance in spatial interpolation of daily rain gauge data

Spatial interpolation of rain gauge data is important in forcing of hydrological simulations or evaluation of weather predictions, for example. This paper investigates the application of statistical distance, like one minus common variance of observation time series, between data sites instead of geographical distance in interpolation. Here, as a typical representative of interpolation methods ...
