Journal ArticleDOI
The climate hazards infrared precipitation with stations--a new environmental record for monitoring extremes.
Chris Funk,Pete Peterson,Martin Landsfeld,Diego Pedreros,James P. Verdin,Shraddhanand Shukla,Gregory Husak,James Rowland,Laura Harrison,Andrew Hoell,Joel Michaelsen +10 more
TL;DR: The Variable Infiltration Capacity model, a novel blending procedure incorporating the spatial correlation structure of CCD-estimates to assign interpolation weights, is presented and it is shown that CHIRPS can support effective hydrologic forecasts and trend analyses in southeastern Ethiopia.
OtherDOI
A quasi-global precipitation time series for drought monitoring
Chris Funk,Pete Peterson,Martin Landsfeld,Diego Pedreros,James P. Verdin,James Rowland,Bo E. Romero,Gregory Husak,Joel Michaelsen,A. Verdin +9 more
TL;DR: This paper presents a procedure for blending stations to produce the CHIRPS and some examples of the stations used in this procedure can be found in the literature.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Centennial Trends Greater Horn of Africa precipitation dataset
Chris Funk,Chris Funk,Sharon E. Nicholson,Martin Landsfeld,Douglas Klotter,Pete Peterson,Laura Harrison +6 more
TL;DR: Scientists from the UC Santa Barbara Climate Hazards Group and Florida State University have pooled their station archives and expertise to produce a high quality gridded ‘Centennial Trends’ precipitation dataset, which helps to place recent seasonal and multi-annual East African precipitation extremes in a deep historic context.
Journal ArticleDOI
A High-Resolution 1983–2016 Tmax Climate Data Record Based on Infrared Temperatures and Stations by the Climate Hazard Center
Chris Funk,Chris Funk,Pete Peterson,Seth H. Peterson,Shraddhanand Shukla,Frank Davenport,Joel Michaelsen,Kenneth R. Knapp,Martin Landsfeld,Gregory Husak,Laura Harrison,James Rowland,M. E. Budde,Alex Meiburg,Tufa Dinku,Diego Pedreros,Nicholas Mata +16 more
TL;DR: In this article, the dynamics and physics of climate extremes will be a critical challenge for twenty-first-century climate science, and the authors propose a method to understand the relationship between temperature and saturation vapor pressure.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface Solar Radiation Flux and Cloud Radiative Forcing for the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Southern Great Plains (SGP): A Satellite, Surface Observations, and Radiative Transfer Model Study
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented surface solar radiation flux and cloud radiative forcing results obtained by using a combination of satellite and surface observations interpreted by means of a simple plane-parallel radiative transfer model called 2001.
