Orographic Control of Precipitation: What are We Learning from MAP?
The first four words of the title of this article match the title of Section 4 of Ron Smith’s (1979) review, “The Influence of Mountains on the Atmosphere”. Via a comprehensive survey of the literature available 25 years ago, Smith identified the key ways in which mountains potentially can affect precipitation. Little has changed regarding his conclusions. However, little factual information wa...
متن کاملA report on “the first Concept Map Design Contest on Infection Prevention and Control”
Background Concept maps are considered not only as a powerful method of meaningful learning, but also as an instrument for evaluating the efficiency of learning. Different inquiries suggest that concept maps by promoting critical thinking and clinical reasoning may play a significant role in increasing adherence to infection prevention methods and therefore reduce healthcare-associated infectio...
متن کاملGeostatistical Mapping of Mountain Precipitation Incorporating Autosearched Effects of Terrain and Climatic Characteristics
Hydrologic and ecologic studies in mountainous terrain are sensitive to the temporal and spatial distribution of precipitation. In this study a geostatistical model, Auto-Searched Orographic and Atmospheric Effects Detrended Kriging (ASOADeK), is introduced to map mountain precipitation using only precipitation gauge data. The ASOADeK model considers both precipitation spatial covariance and or...
متن کاملComparison of Orographic Precipitation in Map and Improve Ii
The Mesoscale Alpine Programme (MAP) was conducted over the European Alps in September-November 1999. During autumn, heavy rains and floods can occur when baroclinic troughs move over the region, and moist air flows from the Mediterranean Sea toward the southern Alps. Dual-polarimetric Doppler and vertically pointing radar data collected during MAP on the Mediterranean side of the Alps provided...
متن کامل7.2a Orographic Enhancement of Precipitation in Midlatitudes: Results from Map and Improve Ii
When midlatitude baroclinic systems move over a mountain range, the precipitation from the system intensifies over and sometimes upwind of the slope of the mountain barrier. The maximum precipitation occurs on the lower windward slopes in almost immediate response to the orographically induced lifting of the air such that the maximum precipitation may occur well below the summit of the range (e...
