Microclimate Exposures of Surface-based Weather Stations
APRIL 2005 AMERICAN METEOROLOGICAL SOCIETY | T he U.S. Historical Climate Network (USHCN; Karl et al. 1990) consists of a subset of stations from the National Weather Service (NWS) cooperative (COOP) station network. The USHCN stations are used in the construction of homogeneous climate data reference series and in the detection and monitoring of long-term climatic trends. Stations are selected...
متن کاملWeather Types and Rainfall over Senegal. Part I: Observational Analysis
A k-means cluster analysis is used to summarize unfiltered daily atmospheric variability at regional-scale over the western Sahel and eastern tropical North Atlantic during the boreal summer season (July—September, JAS) 1961—1998. It employs zonal and meridional regional wind fields at 925, 700 and 200 hPa from the European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecast Reanalyses. An 8-cluster solut...
متن کاملSpatio-temporal analysis of diurnal air temperature parameterization in Weather Stations over Iran
Diurnal air temperature modeling is a beneficial experimental and mathematical approach which can be used in many fields related to Geosciences. The modeling and spatio-temporal analysis of air Diurnal Temperature Cycle (DTC) was conducted using data obtained from 105 synoptic stations in Iran during the years 2013-2014 for the first time; the key variable for controlling the cosine term i...
متن کاملModelling Wind Speed Distributions in Selected Weather Stations
Modelling daily wind speed data by using the two parameter Weibull distribution for ten selected weather stations in Sri Lanka is presented. The daily wind speed data measured by the Department of Meteorology at the heights of 6m-15m during the years 2001 and 2004 were used in this work. The annual variation of the fitted Weibull parameters, the shape parameter k and the scale parameter c range...
متن کاملThese mobile weather stations can help cope with floods, landslides
Floods, the most common and hazardous natural event in Sri Lanka, are mainly caused by excessive rainfall received during monsoons resulting from development of low-pressure systems in the Bay of Bengal. From 2004 to 2014, Sri Lanka faced 23 flood occurrences with over 500 lives being lost and 9 million people affected. These floods caused an economic loss of USD 1 billion, reveals data availab...
