On the feasibility of using a lake water balance model to infer rainfall: an example from Lake Victoria
A water balance model of Lake Victoria that can be used to assess rainfall from lake level, is derived. The model utilizes satellite estimates of rainfall directly over the lake. The model, initially derived and calibrated for the period 1956-1978, is reformulated here in such a way that all water balance terms except evaporation can be calculated from a combination of catchment rainfall and le...
متن کاملPerformance of Meris Products in Lake Victoria
The newly finished ESA project MERIS Lakes included activity in Lake Victoria to show the potensial for monitoring this eutrophic African Lake. In this study an evaluation of how different processors perform in Lake Victoria. Lack of proper validation data makes it only possible to have a preliminary assessment of the performance of the product algal_2, suspended material and the signal depth, ...
متن کاملThe water balance of Lake Victoria
This paper presents new calculations of Lake Victoria's water balance. Evaporation is estimated using both the Penman formula and the energy balance approach, and sensitivity studies are performed to determine the influence of input data on the estimates. Rainfall over the lake is estimated from catchment rainfall using a relationship between the two that was derived using satellite data. The r...

متن کاملHazardous thunderstorm intensification over Lake Victoria
Weather extremes have harmful impacts on communities around Lake Victoria, where thousands of fishermen die every year because of intense night-time thunderstorms. Yet how these thunderstorms will evolve in a future warmer climate is still unknown. Here we show that Lake Victoria is projected to be a hotspot of future extreme precipitation intensification by using new satellite-based observatio...
