Spatio‐temporal precipitation climatology over complex terrain using a censored additive regression model
Flexible spatio-temporal models are widely used to create reliable and accurate estimates for precipitation climatologies. Most models are based on square root transformed monthly or annual means, where a normal distribution seems to be appropriate. This assumption becomes invalid on a daily time scale as the observations involve large fractions of zero observations and are limited to non-negat...
متن کاملRecirculation over complex terrain
This study generated eddy covariance data to investigate atmospheric dynamics leeward of a small, forested hillside in upstate New York. The causes and effects of recirculation eddies were examined to support the larger goal of improving measurement of the exchange of energy, moisture, and trace gases between the terrestrial biosphere and the atmosphere over complex terrain. Sensors operated at...
متن کاملThe concave integral over large spaces
This paper investigates the concave integral for capacities defined over large spaces. We characterize when the integral with respect to capacity v can be represented as the infimum over all integrals with respect to additive measures that are greater than or equal to v. We introduce the notion of loose extendability and study its relation to the concave integral. A non-additive version for the...
متن کاملFlying over a polyhedral terrain
We consider the problem of computing shortest paths in three-dimensions in the presence of a single-obstacle polyhedral terrain, and present a new algorithm that for any p ≥ 1, computes a (c + ε)approximation to the Lp-shortest path above a polyhedral terrain in O( ε log n log log n) time and O(n log n) space, where n is the number of vertices of the terrain, and c = 2(p−1)/p. This leads to a F...
متن کاملVariable influence of terrain on precipitation patterns: Delineation and Use of Effective Terrain Height in PRISM
An issue encountered when mapping precipitation is the importance of terrain in defining the patterns of precipitation. In the mountainous western U.S., terrain dominates the spatial patterns of precipitation. In flat or gently rolling areas such as the Great Plains, the role of terrain is more subdued, although precipitation variations have been documented over low hills in Illinois (Changnon ...
