A rainfall erosivity model using daily rainfall amounts to estimate rainfall erosivity was tested for 29 sites in New South Wales to see whether such a mod... B Yu,C Rosewell - 《Australian Journal of Soil Research》 被引量: 0发表: 1996年 RAINFALL EROSIVITY ESTIMATION UNDER DIFFERENT RAINF...
Many parts of England and Wales recorded record rainfall in the 3-month period May to July 2007. Two events in particular resulted in approximately $10 billion damage to property and infrastructure. The exceptional rainfall in this 3-month period appears to be a consequence of the jet stream ...
This study investigates rainfall and drought characteristics in southeastern Australia (New South Wales and Victoria) using data from 45 rainfall stations. Four homogeneity tests are adopted to determine inhomogeneities in the annual total rainfall (ATR) and monthly rainfall data, namely The Pettitt test...
SYDNEY, May 17 (Xinhua) -- The entire east side of Australia is awaiting a massive deluge which could see some parts of the country receive a month's rainfall in just three days. Weather maps show the states of Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria and Tasmania will be completely covered...
The paper applies a synoptic classification of airflow types (using a scheme based on the Lamb classification, 1950) to temperature and rainfall variations in the north-east of New South Wales. The distribution patterns reflect the relief contrasts of the area which are dominated by the escarpment...
"(Variability) has increased in most places, including Australia, which means rainier rain periods and drier dry periods," said Steven Sherwood, a scientist at the Climate Change Research Centre at the University of New South Wales, who was not involved ...
In south east England there is a 7% chance of exceeding the current rainfall record in at least one month in any given winter. Expanding our analysis to some other regions of England and Wales the risk increases to a 34% chance of breaking a regional record somewhere each winter....
