PURPOSE:To determine the amount of rainfall quickly by a method wherein a pulse delivered from a tipping-bucket rain gage every time when a prescribed amount of rain is obtained is monitored by a timer circuit and the rainfall is determined as exceeding a prescribed level when a subsequent pul...
July receives the highest rainfall (approximately 330.0 mm), followed by August (325.0 mm). As indicated in Fig.3, the annual rainfall ranges from 806.4 mm at Arbgebiya to 1342.0 mm at Mekaneyesus meteorological stations. The monthly minimum and maximum of the maximum...
It can be observed that, row totals in the above matrix will be equal to '1', because a candidate may successfully complete the semester and promoted to the next semester or he may be discontinued from the present semester. Thus [p.sub.i,i+1] is greater than '0' for all values of...
The generated daily rainfall amounts when aggregated into monthly and annual totals will not, in general, preserve the monthly and annual characteristics. Hence, it is necessary to implement a nested correction process. In the first place, the generated monthly total, 𝑋𝑖̃Xi˜, for the...
Consequently, the agricultural production potential in the northern Ghana is diminished by high rainfall variability while the mean annual rainfall totals in all agro-ecological zones experienced a decline in precipitation [4]. The Mann-Kendal statistic was applied by (Oguntunde et al., 2006) [1]...
The daily aggregated rainfall was obtained by summing all eight sets of 3-h rainfall totals for a given day, as were the monthly and annual aggregated rainfall. These preprocessed TRMM 3B42 estimates were subsequently defined as the secondary variable Y in the relevant interpolation methods. 3. ...
These results demonstrate the high variability that exists in the production of rainfall among TCs experiencing similar steering flow, and show that advection of moisture from the tropics is key to higher rainfall totals in the mid-latitudes. Keywords: tropical cyclone; rainfall; GIS; moisture; ...
