â â â  in this study, ability and skill of the nesting version of the regcm3 regional climate model in simulation of monthly and seasonal amount of precipitation and temperature using four different cumulus parameterization of grell-as, grell-fc, emanuel and kuo have been studied over khorasan area including three provinces of north khorasan, khorasan razavi and south khorasan. in this regards,...

abstract due to low spatial resolution or simplifying of some micrometeorological phenomena, atmospheric general circulation models are not able to give a good estimation for weather conditions over study area. so their outputs should downscale into weather stations scales. in this research data of hadcm3 downscaled by using lars-wg5 with three scenarios, confirmed by ipcc including a1b, a2 and...

in this research, the daily precipitation data of 1437 synoptic, climatic and rain gauging stations of iran in the time interval 1961- 2004 (equal to 15705 days) was utilized. using kriging geostatistics method, the data were interpolated on the pixels of 15 *15km2, so as an array to the dimension of 15705 * 7187 was formed. to identify the fittest distribution of the days with over 5.0mm preci...

[1] Temperature changes at the Earth surface propagate into the subsurface and leave a thermal signature in the underlying soil and rock. Inversions of subsurface temperature measurements yield reconstructions of ground surface temperature (GST) histories that provide estimates of climatic changes. A question remaining in the interpretation of reconstructed GST histories is the extent to which ...

Here, I describe the geographical distribution of the savanna types in Namibia and identify the factors controlling the occurrence of each savanna type in relation to the amount of annual precipitation and the various physiographical regions, including the mopane ( Colophospermum mopane) area. The different types of savanna can be distinguished on the basis of the leaf habits of the dominant ve...
