Extreme precipitation events: Data issues and meteorological causes
1 N umerous papers have documented an increase in extreme precipitation events in the US over the past 30 years or so. The fundamental cause of this trend is a subject of active research. The purpose of this study is to examine the meteorological factors that underlie the trend, specifically to determine the contributions of the major types of meteorological precipitation-producing systems to t...
متن کاملInvestigation of the atmospheric circulation anomalies associated with extreme rainfall events over the Coastal West Africa
This study investigates the atmospheric circulation associated with extreme rainfall events over the coastal West Africa. The rainfall data of this study were obtained from the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC), spanning from 1981 to 2010. The atmospheric datasets were also obtained from the ERA-Interim reanalysis. The study employed the Z-Index to categorize dry and wet years into...
متن کاملIstsos, Sensor Observation Management System: a Real Case Application of Hydro-meteorological Data for Flood Protection
istSOS (Istituto scienze della Terra Sensor Observation Service) is an implementation of the Sensor Observation Service standard from Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC). The development of istSOS started in 2009 in order to provide a simple implementation of the Sensor Observation Service (SOS) standard for the management, provision and integration of hydro-meteorological data collected in Canton...
متن کاملMarine reserves help coastal ecosystems cope with extreme weather.
Natural ecosystems have experienced widespread degradation due to human activities. Consequently, enhancing resilience has become a primary objective for conservation. Nature reserves are a favored management tool, but we need clearer empirical tests of whether they can impart resilience. Catastrophic flooding in early 2011 impacted coastal ecosystems across eastern Australia. We demonstrate th...
متن کاملThe Trans-African Hydro-Meteorological Observatory (TAHMO)
In this opinion article, we present the Trans-African Hydro-Meteorological Observatory (TAHMO). The goal of TAHMO is to develop a dense network of hydro-meteorological measurement stations throughout sub-Saharan Africa. On average, there will be one station per 1000 km2. The stations will be cost-effective through the use of new sensor and communication technologies. The station design is robus...
