Spatial variability of rainfall in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia: long and short term characteristics
Spatial variability of both long and short term rainfall in an urban environment in Malaysia was studied using historical monthly and yearly rainfall data and, unique for the humid tropics region, recently collected, short term rainfall data measured with very small time and space resolution. The results for the yearly data indicated some elongation of the spatial structures of rainfall in the ...
متن کاملSpatial and temporal variability of rainfall erosivity factor for Switzerland
Rainfall erosivity, considering rainfall amount and intensity, is an important parameter for soil erosion risk assessment under future land use and climate change. Despite its importance, rainfall erosivity is usually implemented in models with a low spatial and temporal resolution. The purpose of this study is to assess the temporaland spatial distribution of rainfall erosivity in form of the ...
متن کاملQuantifying Model Output Uncertainty Due to Spatial Variability of Rainfall'
Traditionally in the application of hydrologic/water quality (H/WQ) models, rainfall is assumed to be spatially homogeneous and is considered not to contribute to output uncertainty. The objective of this study was to assess the uncertainty induced in model outputs solely due to rainfall spatial variability. The study was conducted using the AGNPS model and the rainfall pattern captured by a ne...
متن کاملPath-averaged rainfall estimation using microwave links: Uncertainty due to spatial rainfall variability
[1] Microwave links can be used to estimate the pathaveraged rain rate along the link when precipitation occurs. They take advantage of the near proportionality between the specific attenuation affecting the link signal and the rain rate. This paper deals with the influence of the spatial variability of rainfall along the link on the accuracy of the rainfall estimates. We focus on single-polari...
متن کاملSpatial Variability in Rainfall Erosivity versus Rainfall Depth: Implications for Sediment Yield
ity in rainfall erosivity and associated sediment yield. Rainfall erosivity and sediment yield can be measured Rainfall depth within small semiarid watersheds can have high much more cost effectively than runoff, an important spatial variability, but spatial variability in rainfall erosivity, a more direct determinant of sediment yield, has not been quantified. Using consideration when studying...
