In this paper, we describe a process of extracting information from meteorological texts in Serbian. The text corpus consists of almost 46000 sentences. Having in mind the specifics of Serbian and characteristics of meteorological sublanguage, we develop a classification schema for structuring extracted information and transducers for annotating pieces of information in the text corpus. We desc...

A medical-meteorological weather assessment using hybrid spatial classification of synoptic and meteorological data was done. Empirical models for assessment as well as for forecast of medical-meteorological weather type at the seaside climatic zone in Palanga were developed. It was based on the data of meteofactors (atmospheric pressure, relative humidity, temperature, oxygen density in atmosp...

The important roles of the planetary boundary layer (PBL) in climate, weather and air quality have long been recognized, but little is known about the PBL climatology in China. Using the fine-resolution sounding observations made across China and reanalysis data, we conducted a comprehensive investigation of the PBL in China from January 2011 to July 2015. The boundary layer height (BLH) is fou...

The latest MODIS GPP (gross primary productivity) product, MOD17A2H, has great advantages over the previous version, MOD17A2, because the resolution increased from 1000 m to 500 m. In this study, MOD17A2H GPP was assessed using the latest eddy covariance (EC) flux data (FLUXNET2015 Dataset) at eighteen sites in six ecosystems across the globe. The sensitivity of MOD17A2H GPP to the meteorology ...

Mapping landslides and building landslides inventory have received a special attention from a wide range of specialist. In building a landslide inventory an important step is the spatial delineation of the landslides body, followed by the landslides classification according with an international used classification system and the identification of other landslides characteristics. The main meth...

In order to provide an uncertainty estimate for short-term wind power predictions the accuracy of the underlying wind speed prediction is assessed quantitatively for different meteorological situations. With methods from synoptic climatology an automatic classification scheme is implemented using measurements of wind speed, wind direction and pressure at mean sea level to characterize the local...

The relationship between the incidence of bacillary dysentery and meteorological factors was investigated. Data on bacillary dysentery incidence in Shenyang from 1990 to 1996 were obtained from Liaoning Provincial Center for Disease Control and Prevention, and meteorological data such as atmospheric pressure, air temperature, precipitation, evaporation, wind speed, and the amount of solar radia...
