this study is a step toward identifying spatial and temporal patterns of precipitation on the territory of iraq. the purpose of this analysis, the data related to the network database aphrodite a 57 -year period (2007-1951), was used. the data matrix consists of three cell location, the original data (rainfall) and the calendar matrix .surfer was drawn up. also analyzed for the first time and t...

Herein, we investigated the characteristics and mechanisms of interannual variability extreme summer precipitation in northwest China (NWC). The four high-resolution predicting products under assessment indicated that both accumulation daily ≥95th percentile, maxima generally decreased a southeast—northwest direction, while relatively high values were observed Tienshan Qilian Mountain areas. In...

High-resolution seasonal and annual precipitation climatologies for the Upper Indus Basin were developed on basis of 1995–2017 normals obtained from four-gridded datasets (APHRODITE, CHIRPS, PERSIANN-CDR, ERA5) quality-controlled high- mid-elevation station observations. Monthly is estimated through anomaly method at catchment scale, then, it compared with observed discharges over 1975–2017 per...

Precipitation observations from a ground-based gauge provide reliable data source for hydrological and climatological studies. However, these are sparse in many regions of the world, particularly Mekong River Basin (MRB). Satellite-based precipitation products (SPPs) sole available with worldwide coverage. Despite this, there is mismatch between SPPs gauge-based observations, correct procedures...

The fidelity of gridded rainfall datasets is important for the characterization features across globe. This study investigates climatology, interannual variability, and spatial-temporal variations seasonal over Thailand during 1970–2007 period using station data obtained from Thai Meteorological Department (TMDstn). In addition, performance three datasets, namely APHRODITE, CRU, GPCC, in reprod...
