suggesting a simple criterion to estimate heavy rainfall in iran
introduction selection of the clear and transparent index for the precipitation using long-term homogeneous data is an important point for the researchers. several investigations have led to different indices for heavy rainfall. in some cases the specific amount of precipitation was used for heavy rainfall (rahimzadeh, 2005; masoodian, 2008; kamiguchi et al., 2006), e.g. alijani (2002) has sugg...
متن کاملFourier's law: insight from a simple derivation.
The onset of Fourier's law in a one-dimensional quantum system is addressed via a simple model of weakly coupled quantum systems in contact with thermal baths at their edges. Using analytical arguments we show that the crossover from the ballistic (invalid Fourier's law) to diffusive (valid Fourier's law) regimes is characterized by a thermal length scale, which is directly related to the profi...
متن کاملQuantifying Global Uncertainties in a Simple Microwave Rainfall Algorithm
While a large number of methods exist in the literature for retrieving rainfall from passive microwave brightness temperatures, little has been written about the quantitative assessment of the expected uncertainties in these rainfall products at various time and space scales. The latter is the result of two factors: sparse validation sites over most of the world’s oceans, and algorithm sensitiv...
متن کاملA simple stochastic model of hourly rainfall for Farnborough, England
This paper describes a stochastic rainfall model which has been developed to generate synthetic sequences of hourly rainfalls at a point. The model has been calibrated using data from Farnborough in Hampshire, England. This rainfall data series was divided into wet and dry spells; analysis of the durations of these spells suggests that they may be represented by exponential and generalized Pare...
متن کاملDevelopment of a simple, catchment-scale, rainfall- evapotranspiration-runoff model
Representation of the hydrological interaction between the land surface and the atmosphere requires considerable improvement, particularly for predicting evapotranspiration feedbacks for use in models of the general circulation (GCMs) of the atmosphere. The predictive model developed here attempts to use a water balance approach that extracts information from the masses of catchment-scale time ...
