Daily rainfall data for the winter season October–December for the long period of 102 years 1901–2002 over southeast peninsular India have been used to study the characteristics of daily precipitation extremes. The frequency and intensity of extreme precipitation events do not show statistically significant long-term trend. The relationship of El Nino-southern oscillation index with these extre...

Data collected around the Santa Catalina Mountains in Arizona as part of the Cumulus Photogrammetric, In Situ and Doppler Observations (CuPIDO) experiment during the 2006 summer monsoon season are used to investigate the effect of soil moisture on the surface energy balance, boundary layer (BL) characteristics, thermally forced orographic circulations, and orographic cumulus convection. An unus...

The global hydrological cycle is predicted to be intensified under the warming climate, with more extreme precipitation events and longer dry spell in between. Here, we evaluated how (EPEs) antecedent (dry-EPEs) wet (wet-EPEs) water conditions influence carbon exchange along gradient of arid, semi-arid, sub-humid ecosystems based on eddy covariance datasets. After EPEs, ecosystem respiration gr...

This study presents the interannual variation in summer monsoon rainfall during El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) phases, that is, and La Nina throughout Indian subcontinent its subregions 1986–2010. The analysis includes performance assessments of regional climate model (RegCM4) simulating through comparison with India Meteorological Department data. Observation clearly demonstrates Nino/La ...

With the development in egocentric vision, skill measurement has been recently proposed as a novel topic in this emerging field. In this report, we record the the experimenter’s first-person videos in Wet labratories (wetlab), and measure his/her operative skills. Specifically, given the videos of expert and amateur, we analyze their head motions, hands motions, eye-hand coordinations and key-m...

There are many studies about using lemmatization and spell-checker with spell-correction regarding English, Arabic, Persian languages but only few found low-resource such as Kurdish language more specifically for Kurmanji dialect, which increased the need of creating systems. Lemmatization is process determining a base or dictionary form (lemma) specific surface pattern, whereas spell-checkers ...
