How is Precipitation Changing?
Observations show that changes are occurring in the amount, intensity, frequency and type of precipitation. These aspects of precipitation generally exhibit large natural variability, and El Niño and changes in atmospheric circulation patterns such as the North Atlantic Oscillation have a substantial influence. Pronounced longterm trends from 1900 to 2005 have been observed in precipitation amo...
متن کاملObserved heavy precipitation increase confirms theory and early models
The approach to illustrate observed changes in heavy precipitation has been repeated for gridded daily precipitation data for the US. Fig.S1a shows the same result as Fig.2b but for the contiguous US east of 100°W, specifically the region between 65° and 100°W and 25° and 49°N with data coverage (see domain in Fig.S5). Note that the period differs somewhat from Fig.2b since only data up to 2006...
متن کاملTrends in Seoul (1778–2004) summer precipitation
[1] Precipitation data for Seoul, Korea, have been recorded since 1778, representing one of the world’s longest instrumental measurements of daily precipitation. Trends in summer precipitation amount, intensity, and indices of climate extremes are studied. The detected trends were tested using trend-to-noise ratio test, nonparametric Mann– Kendall rank statistic and Monte Carlo simulation proce...
متن کاملThe Changing Character of Precipitation
SEPTEMBER 2003 AMERICAN METEOROLOGICAL SOCIETY | W hy does it rain? If a parcel of air rises, it expands in the lower pressure, cools, and therefore condenses moisture in the parcel, producing cloud and, ultimately, rainfall—or perhaps snowfall. So a key ingredient is certainly the many and varied mechanisms for causing air to rise. These range from orographic uplifting as air flows over mounta...
متن کاملspatial modeling of summer precipitation in North-west of Iran
In the present study, the main aim was the spatial evaluation summer rainfall of northwest of Iran based on30 stations in northwest of Iran during 30 years of statistical period (1985-2014). An attempt, using geo-statistical modeling by ordinary least squares (OLS) and geographically weighted regression (GWR) procedures, was also made. The results represented that the GWR model with higher S2, ...
