Evidence for trends in heavy rainfall events over the UK.
Daily precipitation in the UK has changed over the period 1961-2000, becoming on average more intense in winter and less intense in summer. Recent increases in total winter precipitation are shown to be mainly due to an increase in the amount of precipitation on wet days, with a smaller contribution in the western UK from a trend towards more wet days. If the wet-day amounts are modelled using ...
متن کاملA Statistical Method for Forecasting Rainfall over Puerto Rico
Using results from a factor analysis regionalization of nontropical storm convective rainfall over the island of Puerto Rico, a statistical methodology is investigated for its potential to forecast rain events over limited areas. Island regionalization is performed on a 15-yr dataset, while the predictive model is derived from 3 yr of surface and rainfall data. The work is an initial attempt at...
متن کاملA soil moisture–rainfall feedback mechanism 2. Numerical experiments
Here we develop a numerical model to investigate the hypothesis proposed by a companion paper [Eltahir, this issue], which describes a soil moisture–rainfall feedback mechanism. The model is designed to describe the seasonal evolution of the West African monsoon rainfall and is used to perform numerical experiments that elucidate the mechanisms of the response of rainfall to soil moisture anoma...
متن کاملRainfall forecasting using variational assimilation of radar data in numerical cloud models
In this paper, a variational data assimilation procedure for initialization of a cloud model using radar re ̄ectivity and radial velocity observations and its impact on short term rainfall forecasting are investigated in a simulation framework. The procedure is based on the formulation of an objective function, which consists of a linear combination of the squared dierences between model foreca...
متن کاملImpact of high-resolution data assimilation of GPS zenith delay on Mediterranean heavy rainfall forecasting
Impact of GPS (Global Positioning System) data assimilation is assessed here using a high-resolution numerical weather prediction system at 2.5 km horizontal resolution. The Zenithal Tropospheric Delay (ZTD) GPS data from mesoscale networks are assimilated with the 3DVAR AROME data assimilation scheme. Data from more than 280 stations over the model domain have been assimilated during 15-day lo...
