Spatial and temporal variation of rainfall over New Zealand

Temporal variation of interrill erosion under different rainfall intensities in semi-arid soils

Interrill erosion can change during rainfall due to change of soil conditions. This research was carried out to investigate the temporal variation of interrill erosion in different soils under different rainfall intensities. For this purpose, laboratory experiments were carried out in three soil textures consists under three simulated rainfalls under slope of 10 percent in three replications...

Temporal and Spatial Assessment of Four Satellite Rainfall Estimates over French Guiana and North Brazil

Satellite precipitation products are a means of estimating rainfall, particularly in areas that are sparsely equipped with rain gauges. The Guiana Shield is a region vulnerable to high water episodes. Flood risk is enhanced by the concentration of population living along the main rivers. A good understanding of the regional hydro-climatic regime, as well as an accurate estimation of precipitati...

Spatial and Temporal Variability of Rainfall over the South-West Coast of Bangladesh

This study examined the spatial and temporal rainfall variability from the 1940s to 2007 in the south west coastal region of Bangladesh. Time series statistical tests were applied to examine the spatial and temporal trends in three time segments (1948–1970, 1971–1990 and 1991–2007) and four seasons (Pre-monsoon; Monsoon; Post-Monsoon and Winter), during the period 1948–2007. Eight weather stati...

Temporal and spatial variation of the phytoplankton community in the Chahnime Reservoirs-Sistan

This study investigated seasonal changes in density and diversity of phytoplankton, chlorophyll a content, and some environmental characteristics in the Sistan region during 2014. Totally, we detected 28 genera that belonged to five groups of Chlorophyta (12 genera), Bacilloriophyta (7 genera), Cyanophyta (5 genera), Dinophyta (3 genera), and Euglenophyta (1 genus). We observed that Chlorophyta...
