Journal ArticleDOI
The climatic and physiographic controls of the eastern Mediterranean over the late Pleistocene climates in the southern Levant and its neighboring deserts
TL;DR: In this article, a framework of eastern Mediterranean atmospheric circulation features interacting with the morphology and location of the southeast Mediterranean coast is proposed to explain the much-increased rains in Lebanon and northern Israel and Jordan as deduced from pollen, rise and maintenance of Lake Lisan, and speleothem formation in areas currently arid and semiarid.
Journal ArticleDOI
Late Holocene climates of the Near East deduced from Dead Sea level variations and modern regional winter rainfall
Yehouda Enzel,Revital Bookman,David Sharon,Haim Gvirtzman,Uri Dayan,Baruch Ziv,Baruch Ziv,Mordechai Stein +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the decadal to centennial-resolution Holocene lake-level curve of the Dead Sea was presented and the regional hydrological and EM climatology that affected level variations were determined.
Journal ArticleDOI
The spottiness of rainfall in a desert area
TL;DR: In this article, the authors found that between one half and two thirds of the total rainfall in the southernmost, arid part of Israel is of a highly localized type, coming mostly from small convective cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
The distribution of hydrologically effective rainfall incident on sloping ground
David Sharon,David Sharon +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a trigonometrical model based on a model in which the inclination of drop trajectories is assumed to be constant in time, in space and over the drop spectrum is proposed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A severe autumn storm over the middle-east: synoptic and mesoscale convection analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the Red Sea Trough and showed that in cases in which additional moisture is supplied and dynamic conditions become supportive, such as the case analyzed here, intense thunderstorms occur, with extreme rain rates, hail and floods.
