An Assessment Of The Biases Of Satellite Rainfall Estimates Over The Tibetan Plateau And Correction Methods Based On Topographic Analysis, Zhi-Yong Yin, Xueqin Zhang, Xiaodong Liu, Mike Colella, Xiaoling Chen Jun 2008

An Assessment Of The Biases Of Satellite Rainfall Estimates Over The Tibetan Plateau And Correction Methods Based On Topographic Analysis, Zhi-Yong Yin, Xueqin Zhang, Xiaodong Liu, Mike Colella, Xiaoling Chen

Environmental and Ocean Sciences: Faculty Scholarship

The hydrological processes over the Tibetan Plateau have significant implications on regional macroscale atmospheric circulation patterns and the Asian monsoon system. Because of its remote setting and lack of ground observations, it is difficult to study the spatial and temporal patterns of precipitation over the plateau, and satellite remote sensing technology can be used to fill in the gaps where station data are not available. In this study the authors examine monthly 1° × 1° rainfall estimates obtained from the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) [National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS) algorithm] and Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) …

Temporal Trends And Variability Of Daily Maximum And Minimum, Extreme Temperature Events, And Growing Season Length Over The Eastern And Central Tibetan Plateau During 1961–2003, Xiaodong Liu, Zhi-Yong Yin, Xuemei Shao, Ningsheng Qin Oct 2006

Temporal Trends And Variability Of Daily Maximum And Minimum, Extreme Temperature Events, And Growing Season Length Over The Eastern And Central Tibetan Plateau During 1961–2003, Xiaodong Liu, Zhi-Yong Yin, Xuemei Shao, Ningsheng Qin

Environmental and Ocean Sciences: Faculty Scholarship

Daily and monthly maximum and minimum surface air temperatures at 66 weather stations over the eastern and central Tibetan Plateau with elevations above 2000 m were analyzed for temporal trends and spatial variation patterns during the period 1961–2003. Statistically significant warming trends were identified in various measures of the temperature regime, such as temperatures of extreme events and diurnal temperature range. The warming trends in winter nighttime temperatures were among the highest when compared with other regions. We also confirmed the asymmetric pattern of greater warming trends in minimum or nighttime temperatures as compared to the daytime temperatures. The warming …

Sand Mining In Baja And Alta California, Harold Magistrale May 2005

Sand Mining In Baja And Alta California, Harold Magistrale

San Diego International Law Journal

This Comment will examine some geologic, environmental, and legal aspects of the international sand trade. Looking at the state of sand mining in both countries will demonstrate that the United States and Mexico have parallel regulatory structures and similar environmental concerns and will show how municipal and state officials in Baja California are ale to piggyback their economic concerns onto environmental regulations. This Comment will also examine the sand trade issue for lessons applicable to cross border trade and suggest a certification mechanism that would allow continued sand exports while preserving environmental safeguards.
