DOI: 10.1002/2016jc012429
Abstract: The Zeng and Beljaars (2005) sea surface temperature prognostic scheme, developed to represent diurnal warming, is extended to represent rain-induced freshening and cooling. Effects of rain on salinity and temperature in the molecular skin layer… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jeq2.20348
Abstract: Changing precipitation has the potential to alter nitrous oxide (N2 O) emissions from agricultural regions. In this study, we applied the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project phase 5 (CMIP5) end-of-century RCP 8.5 (business as usual) precipitation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/joc.7078
Abstract: The characteristics of diurnal variation of precipitation in terms of amount (PA), frequency (PF), and intensity (PI) over Sumatra have been investigated using rain‐gauge data from 186 stations. Mean PA and PF show spatial variations… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/joc.8662
Abstract: In mountainous areas, accurately estimating the long‐term climatology of seasonal precipitations is challenging due to the lack of high‐altitude rain gauges and the complexity of the topography. This study addresses these challenges by interpolating seasonal… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/qj.3291
Abstract: Four years of disdrometric measurements made at Gadanki (13.5°N, 79.18°E), which receives rainfall during both southwest and northeast monsoons, have been used to (a) derive optimal attenuation relations for monsoonal rainfall at the X band,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/qj.4923
Abstract: This study presents results from the simulation of idealised, rain‐laden downdraughts using a large‐eddy model. Each downdraught is initialised as a “cold, wet bubble”, that is, a spherical/spheroidal region of the lower atmosphere with a… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00382-020-05344-w
Abstract: Monsoon intra-seasonal oscillation (MISO) represents a quasi-periodic occurrence of rainfall spells over India during summer monsoon (June–September) associated with large-scale circulation and convection. The connection of MISO with the hydrological cycle has been explored in… read more here.
