Snowfall in High Southern Latitudes
based upon t(h)•e atmospheric water balance equation pr vide seasonal precipitation amou ts for areas l rger than I xl km 2. For broad-scale studies in the continental interior net snow accumulation closely approximates precipitation. Annual precipitation is relatively high over the marginal ice slopes in relation to amounts in the interior. This meridional distribution is due to the orographic...
متن کاملRelationships between Northwest Flow Snowfall and Topography in the Southern Appalachians
This paper analyzes the relationships between northwest flow snowfall (NWFS) and various topographic and geographic (TOPO/GEOG) variables in the Southern Appalachian Mountains of the southeastern U.S. We identify NWFS events on the basis of low-level wind direction, extract values for the TOPO/GEOG variables from Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), and develop statistical relationships between NWF...
متن کاملSnowfall in the Northwest Iberian Peninsula: Synoptic Circulation Patterns and Their Influence on Snow Day Trends
In recent decades, a decrease in snowfall attributed to the effects of global warming (among other causes) has become evident. However, it is reasonable to investigate meteorological causes for such decrease, by analyzing changes in synoptic scale patterns. On the Iberian Peninsula, the Castilla y León region in the northwest consists of a central plateau surrounded by mountain ranges. This cre...
متن کاملCorrigendum: Effects of grazing on photosynthetic features and soil respiration of rangelands in the Tianshan Mountains of Northwest China
“The soil respiration (Sr) increased with time during the day while soil temperature peaked during midday in both ungrazed and grazed plots (Fig. 3). Sr in ungrazed plots was higher than that of grazed plots between 13:00 and 16:00 hours. The mean value of Sr in ungrazed plots (8.01 ± 2.09 μ mol CO2/m/s) was significantly higher than in ungrazed plots (6.77 ± 1.58 μ mol CO2/m/s) (p = 0.017), wh...
متن کاملEffects of grazing on photosynthetic features and soil respiration of rangelands in the Tianshan Mountains of Northwest China
Rangelands play a critical role in the global carbon cycle. However, the eco-physiological mechanisms associated with the effects of grazing on leaf photosynthesis and soil respiration remain poorly understood. To examine the impacts of grazing on leaf photosynthesis and soil respiration, we measured the photosynthetic parameters of the dominant species (Trifolium repens) and the soil respirati...
