Scaling properties of heavy rainfall at short duration: A regional analysis

Scaling properties at freeze-out in relativistic heavy-ion collisions

Identified charged pion, kaon, and proton spectra are used to explore the system size dependence of bulk freeze-out properties in Cu + Cu collisions at √ s NN = 200 and 62.4 GeV. The data are studied with hydrodynamically motivated blast-wave and statistical model frameworks in order to characterize the freeze-out properties of the system. The dependence of freeze-out parameters on beam energy ...

Scaling of extreme rainfall areas at a planetary scale.

Event magnitude and area scaling relationships for rainfall over different regions of the world have been presented in the literature for relatively short durations and over relatively small areas. In this paper, we present the first ever results on a global analysis of the scaling characteristics of extreme rainfall areas for durations ranging from 1 to 30 days. Broken power law models are fit...

A general dimensionless rainfall depth-duration-ferquency relationship

the analysis of frontogenesis frequency at time of super heavy rainfall in iran

in this study, frequency and location of frontogenesis related to heavy rainfall have been analyzed using environmental to circulation approach. based on the threshold of upper 99 percent, we selected 125 days of the super and overall heavy rainfall from irimo data base (included 1437 synoptic, climatic and rain gage stations from 21/3/1961 up to 31/12/2004). frontogenesis frequency and their l...

Spatial Coherence of Tropical Rainfall at the Regional Scale

This study examines the spatial coherence characteristics of daily station observations of rainfall in five tropical regions during the principal rainfall season(s): the Brazilian Nordeste, Senegal, Kenya, northwestern India, and northern Queensland. The rainfall networks include between 9 and 81 stations, and 29–70 seasons of observations. Seasonal-mean rainfall totals are decomposed in terms ...
