Microclimate Exposures of Surface-based Weather Stations
APRIL 2005 AMERICAN METEOROLOGICAL SOCIETY | T he U.S. Historical Climate Network (USHCN; Karl et al. 1990) consists of a subset of stations from the National Weather Service (NWS) cooperative (COOP) station network. The USHCN stations are used in the construction of homogeneous climate data reference series and in the detection and monitoring of long-term climatic trends. Stations are selected...
متن کاملThese mobile weather stations can help cope with floods, landslides
Floods, the most common and hazardous natural event in Sri Lanka, are mainly caused by excessive rainfall received during monsoons resulting from development of low-pressure systems in the Bay of Bengal. From 2004 to 2014, Sri Lanka faced 23 flood occurrences with over 500 lives being lost and 9 million people affected. These floods caused an economic loss of USD 1 billion, reveals data availab...
متن کاملModelling Wind Speed Distributions in Selected Weather Stations
Modelling daily wind speed data by using the two parameter Weibull distribution for ten selected weather stations in Sri Lanka is presented. The daily wind speed data measured by the Department of Meteorology at the heights of 6m-15m during the years 2001 and 2004 were used in this work. The annual variation of the fitted Weibull parameters, the shape parameter k and the scale parameter c range...
متن کاملSpatio-temporal analysis of diurnal air temperature parameterization in Weather Stations over Iran
Diurnal air temperature modeling is a beneficial experimental and mathematical approach which can be used in many fields related to Geosciences. The modeling and spatio-temporal analysis of air Diurnal Temperature Cycle (DTC) was conducted using data obtained from 105 synoptic stations in Iran during the years 2013-2014 for the first time; the key variable for controlling the cosine term i...
متن کاملFuture sea ice conditions and weather forecasts in the Arctic: Implications for Arctic shipping
The ability to forecast sea ice (both extent and thickness) and weather conditions are the major factors when it comes to safe marine transportation in the Arctic Ocean. This paper presents findings focusing on sea ice and weather prediction in the Arctic Ocean for navigation purposes, in particular along the Northeast Passage. Based on comparison with the observed sea ice concentrations for va...
