In this paper a new copula based method is developed for infilling missing daily and monthly rain gauge data and is compared against six other commonly used methods, in a semi-arid environment with a range of rain-rates and interstation distances, in the Southern Cape region of South Africa.
If you're working with inches of rain, and your range of rainfall falls from between 10 inches (25.4 cm) and 70 inches (177.8 cm), then it will make sense to label the vertical axis in increments of ten, starting with 0, then 10, then 20, then 30, and so on.
I've invested in a range of unflattering rain and windproof outfits to keep me warm and dry during the blusteriest, dampest rides.
Nevertheless, our analyses were limited to the time percentages within the validity range of the rain rate conversion method.
These stations are characterized by a low altitude (Deir Alla at 224 m below sea level, Aqaba at sea level and Azraq at 553 m above sea level in the eastern desert and within the range of the rain shadow).
The house is being constructed within a three-storey testing chamber that will feature a unique climate system which will generate a range of snow, rain, wind and humidity conditions - which, unlike other test properties, are not dependent on that day's weather.
The entire East Coast of the United States is getting slammed with a range of freezing rain, sleet, ice or a blizzard.
Thus, it would appear that this process could also be the main factor behind present day distribution patterns for a wide range of African rain forest restricted organisms, including animals.
Although the range of heavy rains was large, only minor rains were reported in Andrews, Crane, Monahans, Kermit, Wink, Stanton, and Pecos.
