Thin plate smoothing spline interpolation of daily rainfall for New Zealand using a climatological rainfall surface
TL;DR: In this paper, a method for estimating daily rainfall on a 0.05° latitude/longitude grid covering all of New Zealand for the period 1960-2004 using a second order derivative trivariate thin plate smoothing spline spatial interpolation model was presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The Deep Propagating Gravity Wave Experiment (DEEPWAVE) was designed to quantify gravity wave dynamics and effects from orographic and other sources to regions of dissipation at high altitudes as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance of the program ASHFALL for forecasting ashfall during the 1995 and 1996 eruptions of Ruapehu volcano
A. W. Hurst,Richard Turner +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compared the program predictions with the actual ash distribution of three major ash-producing events from Ruapehu in 1995 and 1996, and looked at the main sources of error.
Journal ArticleDOI
Airborne spread of foot-and-mouth disease--model intercomparison.
John Gloster,Andrew Jones,Alison Redington,Laura Burgin,Jens Havskov Sørensen,Richard Turner,Michael B. Dillon,Pamela J. Hullinger,Matthew Simpson,Poul Astrup,Graeme Garner,Paul Stewart,Réal D’Amours,Robert Sellers,David J. Paton +14 more
TL;DR: All of the atmospheric dispersion models compared at the Workshop can be used to assess windborne spread of FMDV and provide scientific advice to those responsible for making control and eradication decisions in the event of an outbreak of disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Generating Multiyear Gridded Daily Rainfall over New Zealand
Andrew Tait,Richard Turner +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a method for estimating daily rainfall over the whole of New Zealand on a 5-km grid is described and tested over a period from January 1985 to April 2002, and improvement over a spatial interpolation method was gained by scaling high-elevation rainfall estimates using simulated mesoscale model rainfall surfaces that are generated for short periods in 1994 and 1996.
