A network of water vapor Raman lidars for improving heavy precipitation forecasting in southern France: introducing the WaLiNeAs initiative

Remote Raman Spectroscopy. Profiling Water Vapor and Aerosols in the Troposphere Using Raman Lidars

Orographic Precipitation and Water Vapor Fractionation over the Southern Andes

The climatological nature of orographic precipitation in the southern Andes between 40° and 48°S is investigated primarily using stable isotope data from streamwater. In addition, four precipitation events are examined using balloon soundings and satellite images. The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) images taken during precipitation events reveal complex patterns of upstre...

Simultaneous Ground-Based Remote Sensing of Water Vapor by Differential Absorption and Raman Lidars

Water vapor is well known to be a critical component in many aspects of atmospheric research, such as radiative transfer and cloud and aerosol processes. The distribution of water vapor in the atmosphere is highly variable, both in time and in space, and has proven to be very difficult to measure accurately. The U.S. Department of Energy’s Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Program’s overa...

Forecasting the Cost of Water Using a Neural Network Method in the Municipality of Isfahan

Decision making on budgeting is one of the most important issues for executing managers. Budgeting is a major tool for planning and control of projects. In public and non-profit organizations and institutions, estimating the costs and revenues plays an important role in receiving credit and budgeting. In this regard, in the present paper the case of Isfahan municipality is considered. One of th...
