Critical rainfall is one of the most important parameters of prediction, forecasting and early warning on mountain torrents disasters with important meanings for preventing mountain torrents disasters. In this paper, the measured rainfall method was taken to calculate the critical rainfall in typical regions based on the rainfall data of typical regional meteorological stations. Then, the Inverse Distance Weighting spatial interpolation method and Ordinary Kriging Interpolation method are taken based on the typical regional critical rainfall to get the critical rainfall distribution map of Sichuan Province. The critical rainfall distribution maps, which obtained from the two kinds of interpolation methods, both have universality and operability. Among them, the critical rainfall distribution map mapped by the Ordinary Kriging Interpolation method was more consistent with the practical situation.

Precise Simulation

Years’ precipitation data of Chongqing from 101 metrological stations has been adopted in the paper and the regression equations between annual precipitation and altitude, longitude, and height have been obtained by the use of SPSS, then elaborate simulation of Chongqing’s precipitation resources based on regression analysis was completed through the 1km×1km grid system and fitted equation. Elaborated simulation of precipitation resources was realized by best spatial interpolation method with the support of GIS; then the results of two different simulation methods were coupled in the form of linear combination to obtain the coupling simulation of spatial distribution of Chongqing’s precipitation resources, finally the precipitation resources were summed up and distributed according to different administration areas at county level and thus obtain precise simulation data of precipitation resources in each county of Chongqing. The results showed that there is a remarkable regional difference in the spatial distribution of precipitation resources of Chongqing, and it decreases from the southeast to the northwest in general, with the annual precipitation higher than 1270mm in southeast and lower than 1080mm in northwest.

<p>Generating synthetic precipitation for weather generators were always a challenging issue in hydro-climate simulations because of its high variability in time and space. We present a spectral method for generating the synthetic precipitation time series which is in accordance with the observed precipitation statistical characteristics not only for the observed points, but also for any desired location by interpolating the time series spectrum. In this regard, time series spectra derived from the observed signal converting from its time domain to the corresponding frequency domain using the Fourier transform.</p><p>The main problem for spectral interpolation of precipitation time series is highly occurrence of non-rainy days which can be even more inaccurate for the finer resolutions such as hourly and sub-hourly data. In order to overcome the highly frequent occurrence of non-rainy days, transformation between indicator and normal correlation has been taken into account.</p><p>This method enables us to generate synthetic time series with same statistical characteristics for the observed points and also for any point of interests rather than the observed points. The introduced so called spectral and spatial interpolation method applied for daily and hourly precipitation time series for the selected stations in state Baden-Württemberg, Germany.</p>

Continuous surface interpolation is an important aspect of spatial analysis. A number of methods are used to interpolate a continuous surface, one of which is the spatial interpolation method with the Inverse Distance Weight (IDW) ratio. The purpose of this article is to develop a method of conditional spatial interpolation for finding such spatial points in the urban zone where the impact of selective accidental aerosol emissions into the city atmosphere is minimal. Conditional spatial interpolation refers to the case when the distances to the interpolated points are set by a certain condition, and it is necessary to determine the interpolated point where the above influence is minimal. In this case, spatial samples or base points used for interpolation are formed when a single powerful aerosol source is exposed to individual channels (distances). It is shown that there is an optimal relationship between the distances from the sampling point to the interpolation point and from the sampling point to the powerful aerosol source, at which the total effect of the powerful source on the interpolated point is minimal.

Abstract. As one of the most important meteorological elements, temperature is an indispensable meteorological parameter for the atmospheric correction of spaceborne LiDAR ranging. Given a limited number of surface meteorological observation stations, the temperature values for all region of LiDAR observation need to be interpolated using appropriate spatial interpolation methods. In this paper, based on the monthly surface observation values in individual years (1981–2010) of Sichuan province observation stations, we firstly analyze the effects of three common interpolation methods, including inverse distance weighting (IDW), ordinary kriging (OK) and gradient plus inverse distance squared (GIDS). To solve the problem of low interpolation accuracy in severely undulating terrain area, an improved gradient distance inverse square method based on the adiabatic lapse rate (GIDS-ALR) is proposed. The experimental results show that the GIDS-ALR has an obvious improvement in the effect of severely undulating terrain, where the absolute error has been improved by more than 43% in average. Additionally, the temperature-interpolated MAE is reduced by more than 30%. The effectiveness and applicability of the proposed method is verified in this paper.

Abstract. Investigations are conducted to best estimate precipitation climate maps over Belgium from daily observations available for the period 1981–2010. Several mapping approaches are compared in a cross-validation exercise. These approaches differ by several aspects and in particular by the order in which the temporal aggregation (i.e. computation of climate mean values from daily data) and spatial interpolation steps are performed, and by the integration of ancillary information in the spatial interpolation method. The selected approach is used to derive a large panel of climate maps. In particular, the main spatio-temporal features of the annual cycle of rainfall in Belgium are extracted by principal component analysis (PCA).
