Rain gauges provide valuable information about the amount and frequency of rainfall. In Australia, the majority of rain gauges are located in populated, wet coastal regions. Approximately 2000 gauges reporting within 24 h of a target day were used to make ...
Accurate and reliable rain rate estimates are important for various hydrometeorological applications. Consequently, rain sensors of different types have been deployed in many regions. In this work, measurements from different instruments, namely, rain gaug ...
The ability to predict the runoff response of an urban catchment to rainfall is crucial for managing drainage systems effectively and controlling discharges from urban areas. In this paper we assess the potential of commercial microwave links (MWL) to capt ...
The area-wide distribution of permafrost is sparsely known in mountainous terrain (e.g. Alps). Permafrost monitoring can only be based on point or small scale measurements such as boreholes, active rock glaciers, BTS measurements or geophysical measurement ...
Spatial snow depth information is an essential component for many applications such as the computation of snow melt rates in hydrologic applications or the energy balance in meteorological or climate models. Due to computational constraints, small-scale di ...
The measurement of rainfall and its prediction at short lead times (often referred to as nowcasting) have important implications in hydrometeorology, and improving their accuracy may have an impact on various human activities. Indeed, the importance of now ...
The importance of the snow cover for the hydrological cycle is well known but the understanding is still limited. For example, the effect of rain-on-snow on melt water runoff and the coupling between spring snow melt and stream flow discharge are difficult ...
A better understanding of the impact of changing temperatures on snow amounts is very important for the ski industry, but it is difficult to measure, particularly at different times of the snow season and not only on an annual or seasonal basis. Here, we a ...
Drifting snow has a large influence on the mountain snow cover and the overlying atmospheric boundary layer. Consequently, drifting snow also affects avalanches, snow hydrology, vegetation and climate. Considerable effort is devoted to understanding the pr ...
Accurate rain rate measurements are essential for many hydrological applications. Although rain gauge remains the reference instrument for the measurement of rain rate, the strong spatial and temporal variability of rainfall makes it difficult to spot faul ...
