Journal ArticleDOI
Variations of meridional aerosol distribution and solar dimming
TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed the meridional distribution of aerosol optical thickness (AOT) over the ocean by using the eight-year MISR and MODIS-Terra data sets, from March 2000 to February 2008, as well as the five-year MODIS Aqua data set, from July 2002 to June 2007.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climatological relationships among the moisture budget components and rainfall amounts over the Mediterranean based on a super‐high‐resolution climate model
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used the super-high-resolution (20 km) GCM monthly mean data of the Mediterranean (Med) Basin to study the moisture budget components over a rectangular region defined by the longitudes 6.0°W-36.0
Journal ArticleDOI
Role of detailed wind-topography interaction in orographic rainfall
Pinhas Alpert,H. Shafir +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a meso y-scale (Ax = 1 km) model for orographic rainfall was used to investigate the dependence of orographics enhancement on wind speed and direction and on detailed topography.

Monitoring and Mapping of Atmospheric Phenomena
TL;DR: In this paper, a computerized system for mapping an atmospheric phenomenon in a geographic region is proposed, which includes an interface to monitoring mechanisms attached respectively to the free-space electromagnetic communications links.
Journal ArticleDOI
A physical model to complement railfall normals over complex terrain
Pinhas Alpert,H Shafir +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a physical model for high-resolution (Δ x = 1-2 km) rainfall over complex terrain that was recently verified against radar-derived observations is shown to be capable of complementing rainfall normals in Israel.
