Statistical and geostatistical analysis of rainfall in central Japan
To obtain fundamental information for assessing water resources and predicting natural hazards caused by heavy rains, rain precipitation data in central Japan have been analyzed statistically and geostatistically using data of AMeDAS (Automated Meteorological Data Acquisition System) established by Meteorological Agency of Japan. The study area is the mountainous Chubu and plain Kanto districts...
متن کاملEffects of the Forecasting Methods, Precipitation Character, and Satellite Resolution on the Predictability of Short-Term Quantitative Precipitation Nowcasting (QPN) from a Geostationary Satellite
The prediction of the short-term quantitative precipitation nowcasting (QPN) from consecutive gestational satellite images has important implications for hydro-meteorological modeling and forecasting. However, the systematic analysis of the predictability of QPN is limited. The objective of this study is to evaluate effects of the forecasting model, precipitation character, and satellite resolu...

متن کاملImproving QPF by blending techniques at the Meteorological Service of Catalonia
The current operational very short-term and shortterm quantitative precipitation forecast (QPF) at the Meteorological Service of Catalonia (SMC) is made by three different methodologies: Advection of the radar reflectivity field (ADV), Identification, tracking and forecasting of convective structures (CST) and numerical weather prediction (NWP) models using observational data assimilation (rada...
متن کاملQuantitative Precipitation Nowcasting: A Lagrangian Pixel-Based Approach
Short-term high-resolution precipitation forecasting has important implications for navigation, flood forecasting, and other hydrological and meteorological concerns. This article introduces a pixel-based algorithm for Short-term Quantitative Precipitation Forecasting (SQPF) using radar-based rainfall data. The proposed algorithm called PixelBased Nowcasting (PBN) tracks severe storms with a hi...
