In regional scale, to answer a wide range of meteorological and hydrological subjects, University of Tsukuba decided to conduct a researh project entitled Multi Monitoring of Meteorological and Hydrological Elements at Mt Tsukuba and Analyses
for Atmosphere and Water Cycles in 2005. To perform this objective, research activities by means of an automated weather system (AWS) have been performed at the summit of Mt Tsukuba. Also scientific interests focus on synoptic futures of the meteorological
Unexpected meteorological extremes : the Limerick tornado of 1851
Cold front ; Historical geography ; Impact ; Ireland ; Meteorology ; Nineteenth Century ; Tornado ; Weather type
An analysis of contemporary documentary sources and meteorological observations show that a T4 tornado event occurred in Limerick during October 1851 ahead of a cold front in unstable air. The path of the tornado through the city is reconstructed
Mount Rwenzori (4750 m a.s.l., Uganda) : meteorological characterization and Air-Mass transport analysis
Climatic data ; High mountain ; Meteorology ; Mountain ; Uganda
The meteorological conditions at Mount Rwenzori (RWZ), in Western Uganda, are explored by analysing meteorological observations carried out during the years 2006-2009 by an Automatic Weather Station (AWS) installed at 4750 m a.s.l. in the eastern
Meteorological observations at Arctic Station, Qeqertasuaq (Godhavn), Central West Greenland
Air temperature ; Arctic Region ; Climatic data ; Cold area ; Meteorology ; Permafrost ; Snow cover ; Soil temperature ; Temperature
In October 1990 a new automatic meteorological station was established at the Arctic station, Qeqertarsuaq. It is the purpose of this note to draw the attention to the existence of this meteorological station, the character of climate parameter
Meteorological observations in 2001 at the Arctic Station, Qeqertarsuaq (69°15'N), Central West Greenland
Active layer ; Arctic Region ; Climatic data ; Cold area ; Greenland ; Meteorology ; Permafrost ; Snow ; Snow cover ; Soil temperature
An automatic meteorological station has been operating at the Arctic Station in West Greenland since 1990. This paper summarises meteorological parameters during 2001, including snow cover, ground temperatures and active layer development.
On the re-discovery of the XVIII-th century daily meteorological observations carried out at Verviers by G.L. Godart
The potential impact of the re-discovery of the oldest and longest historical meteorological observational series in Belgium on the reconstruction of the pastclimate in the Low Countries is discussed.
Meteorological disasters in the Sanjiang Plain, Northeast China
Cool weather damage, frost injuries, floods, droughts and strong wind damage were investigated as typical meteorological disasters occurred during the 36 years after 1950 in the Sanjiang Plain. - (SGA)
Potencialne pozadavky na pozorovanie siete meteorologie a klimatologie v SSR. (Potential requirements on the meteorological and climatological observation network in the Slovak Socialist Republic)
The paper informs about the project of regional amelioration of the observation networks in Slovakia. The results of inquiry various organisations are evaluated and the interpolation errors of selected meteorological elements with territorial
Meteorological observations 1997 at the Arctic Station, Qeqertarsuaq (69°15'N), Central West Greenland
An automatic meteorological station has been operating at the Arctic Station (69°15'N, 53°31'W) in West Greenland since 1990. This paper summarizes meteorological parameters during 1997, including snow and sea ice cover, ground temperatures
Climate ; Fog ; Meteorology ; Poland ; Storm ; The 1990's ; The 2000's
The paper is based on daily meteorological data from the Institute of Meteorology and Water Management (IMGW) weather station in Łeba, from the period 1986-2005. The climatological analysis, beside the characteristics of air temperature
and precipitation, includes the distribution of other principal meteorological elements (air pressure, wind, sunshine hours, cloudiness, relative humidity) and the frequency of weather phenomena (fogs, storms). - (BJ)
Meteorological inputs to dispersion models along complex coasts : a study of the SW Cape of South Africa
Applied climatology ; Atmospheric pollution ; Cape Town ; Coastal environment ; Meteorology ; Model ; Nuclear power station ; Seasonal variation ; South Africa ; Statistics ; Wind
The study takes a critical look at meteorological input parameters to dispersion models in a coastal zone with complex topography. Statistical analyses of historical data from a nuclear power station on the SW coast of South Africa forms the main
Alexander von Humboldts Auffassung vom Klima und sein Beitrag zur Einrichtung von meteorologischen Stationsnetzen. (Alexander von Humboldt's understanding of climate and his contribution to the organization of meteorological networks)
Some aspects of Alexander von Humboldt's views on the idea and the nature of climate are discussed on the occasion of the 125th anniversary of his death. Furthermore, Humboldt's role in connection with the establishment of meteorological networks
is considered taking particularly into account the Prussian Meteorological Institute. (HL).
The use of geographical information systems in climatology and meteorology
Bibliography ; Bioclimatology ; Climatic variation ; Climatology ; Digital elevation model ; Ecology ; Energy ; Forecast ; Forestry ; Geographical information system ; Health ; Hydrology ; Meteorology ; Urban environment
This paper presents a review of the role of geographical information systems, GIS, in climatology and meteorology by discussing methods used to derive and refine spatial climate data, and reviewing the bespoke application of GIS and spatial climate
The aims of this study are to elucidate tidal and meteorological induced variations in nutrient (both dissolved and particulate bound) behaviour. This is carried out below the tidal prism (in a tidal channel), in the tidal prism (on an intertidal
