Concentrating on consuming coefficient, partition coefficient, and Leontief inverse matrix, relevant concepts and algorithms are developed for estimating the impact of meteorological services including the associated (indirect, complete) economic effect. Subsequently, quantitative estimations are particularly obtained for the meteorological services in Jiangxi province by utilizing the input-ou...

Meteorological technology has evolved rapidly in recent years to provide enormous, accurate and personalized advantages in the public service. Large volumes of observational data are generated gradually by technologies such as geographical remote sensing, meteorological radar satellite, etc. that makes data analysis in weather forecasting more precise but also poses a threat to the traditional ...

Agro-meteorological index insurance is an innovative agricultural insurance product that has solved problems of conventional agricultural insurances including excessive cost and moral hazard. Agro-meteorological index insurance has become an effective agricultural insurance scheme. This paper primarily uses meteorological data and winter wheat yield data in the Jiangsu Province for the last 35 ...

Report 53.1.44 pp.; 13 Figs; 1 Table; 20 Refs. In agromcteorological crop yield models meteorological values at not observed points have to be obtained by means of interpolation techniques. In this study, interpolation ...

Soil erosion by water is a serious threat for the Mediterranean region. Raindrop impacts and consequent runoff generation are the main driving forces of this geomorphic process of soil degradation. The potential ability for rainfall to cause soil loss is expressed as rainfall erosivity, a key parameter required by most soil loss prediction models. In Italy, rainfall erosivity measurements are l...

To consider the capabilities of observing technologies, systems and instrumentation, and to expose those capabilities to users of observational data To keep instrument developers and manufacturers aware of present and new observational requirements of all groups of observers and data users To encourage high standards of observational technique and data capture To ensure that its activities meet...

[1] Groundwater recharge is likely to be affected by climate change. In semiarid regions where groundwater resources are often critical, annual recharge rates are typically small and most recharge occurs episodically. Such episodic recharge is uncertain and difficult to predict. This paper analyzes the impacts of different climate predictions on diffuse episodic recharge at a low‐relief semiari...
