Abstract: Lapse rates of near-surface (2 m) air temperature are important parameters in hydrologic and climate simulations, especially for the mountainous areas without enough in-situ observations. In Xinjiang, northwestern China, the elevations range from higher than 7000 m… read more here.

Abstract: Abstract Air temperature lapse rates vary geographically and temporally. Sub-Antarctic Macquarie Island provides an opportunity to compare lapse rates between windward and leeward slopes in a hyper-oceanic climate. Lapse rates were steep by global standards,… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/hess-25-2109-2021
Abstract: Abstract. Precipitation orographic enhancement is the result of both synoptic circulation and topography. Since high-elevation headwaters are often sparsely instrumented, the magnitude and distribution of this enhancement, as well as how they affect precipitation lapse… read more here.
