One consequence of climate change is the alteration of global water fluxes, both in amount and seasonality. As a result, the seasonal difference between dry- (p < 100 mm/month) and wet-season (p > 100 mm/month) precipitation (p) has increased over land during recent decades (1980-2005). However, our analysis expanding to a 60-year period (1950-2009) showed the opposite trend. This is, dry-seaso...

The standard conceptual HBV model was originally developed with daily data and is normally operated on daily time step. But many floods in Slovenia are usually flash floods as result of intense frontal precipitation combined with orographic enhancement. Peak discharges are maintained only for hours or even minutes. To use the HBV model for flash flood forecasting, the version of HBV-96 has been...

Isotopic analysis of precipitation over the Andaman Island, Bay of Bengal was carried out for the year 2012 and 2013 in order to study the atmospheric controls on rainwater isotopic variations. The oxygen and hydrogen isotopic compositions are typical of the tropical marine sites but show significant variations depending on the ocean-atmosphere conditions; maximum depletion was observed during ...

N-Glycans of the Na,K-ATPase β₁ subunit are important for intercellular adhesion in epithelia, suggesting that epithelial junctions depend on N-glycan-mediated interactions between the β₁ subunits of neighboring cells. The level of co-immunoprecipitation of the endogenous β₁ subunit with various YFP-linked β₁ subunits expressed in Madin-Darby canine kidney cells was used to assess β₁-β₁ interac...

The “Montserrat-2000” severe flash flood event which occurred over Catalonia on 9 and 10 June 2000 is analyzed. Strong precipitation was generated by a mesoscale convective system associated with the development of a cyclone. The location of heavy precipitation depends on the position of the cyclone, which, in turn, is found to be very sensitive to various model characteristics and initial cond...

in this research, effect of north atlantic oscillation and sea surface temperature (sst) of atlantic ocean on precipitation and temperature of lorestan province and its effect on occurrence of drought and wet in this province were investigated. so, data of teleconnection indices used as an index for determination of fluctuations of pressure and sea surface temperature in atlantic ocean, amount ...

during february of 2005 the north of iran witnessed the development and activity of a variety of severe meteorological systems accompanied with unusual heavy precipitation, mostly snow and hail. the rate and amount of snow in the northern coastal region was so heavy that it made a new record for that region with a report of more than 3m of snow in rasht, a city located in that area. also the da...

This study integrates a Box-Cox power transformation procedure into a common trend two-phase regression model based test (the PMFred algorithm) for detecting changepoints, to make the test applicable to non-Gaussian data series, such as non-zero daily precipitation amounts or wind speeds. The detection power aspects of the transformed method (transPMFred) are assessed by a simulation study, whi...

Aim. To determine the trends in precipitation patterns, productivity, and cumulative impact of change air temperature levels on cereal yield, including corn spring barley, throughout vegetation cycle stages. Furthermore, examination alterations climate suitability, crop yield shortfall, their specific characteristics within soil-climatic zones Ukraine during 1981–2010 years Methods. In order to...
