Rainfall intensities measured at a few stations in Kerala during 2001–2005 using a disdrometer were found to be in reasonable
agreement with the total rainfall measured using a manual rain gauge. The temporal distributions of rainfall intensity at
different places and during different months show that rainfall is of low intensity (< 10 mm/hr), 65% to 90% of the time.
This could be an indication of the relative prevalence of stratiform and cumuliform clouds. Rainfall was of intensity < 5
mm/hr for more than 95% of the time in Kochi in July 2002, which was a month seriously deficient in rainfall, indicating that
the deficiency was probably due to the relative absence of cumuliform clouds. Cumulative distribution graphs are also plotted
and fitted with the Weibull distribution. The fit parameters do not appear to have any consistent pattern. The higher intensities
also contributed significantly to total rainfall most of the time, except in Munnar (a hill station). In this analysis also,
the rainfall in Kochi in July 2002 was found to have less presence of high intensities. This supports the hypothesis that
the rainfall deficiency was probably caused by the absence of conditions that favoured the formation of cumuliform clouds. 相似文献

Digital elevation models (DEMs) are widely used in the studies related to hydrological modeling. It provides spatially distributed topographical information which helps in the extraction of stream networks. Currently, DEMs obtained through spaceborne remote sensing platforms are increasingly utilized for stream network extraction. However, it is necessary to understand the quality of the derived products and their related issues. Therefore, a comparative study based on stream network extraction in geographical information system (GIS) is performed on such DEMs for two different terrains. Performance metrics such as root mean square error (RMSE), mean absolute error (MAE), standard deviation (SD) of error, correctness index (CI), and figure of merit (FM) are used for the DEM evaluation. The DEMs with finer spatial resolution performed better than coarser resolutions in all the performance indices. It is also observed that the derived stream network from the DEMs having same 30-m spatial resolution (ASTER and CartoDEM) has varying degree of errors. The positional errors of the streams are found to be less for the regions with steep slopes compared to flat terrain. 相似文献

Atmospheric electrical polar conductivities were measured using a Gerdien condenser mounted on an aircraft. These surveys, conducted over the western coast of South India, have detected enhanced conductivities associated with the placer deposits of the radioactive mineral monazite found in this region. The data reflect the variation in the level of surface radioactivity along the flight routes. In one flight that rose over the sea up to 1 km, the effect of radioactivity was seen to extend up to this point. Over land the influence of the surface radioactivity on electrical conductivity is mostly confined to the region of occurrence of the deposits. These studies also suggest the possibility of employing the Gerdien condenser in preliminary surveys to detect the presence of radioactivity. 相似文献
