TL;DR: The North American Regional Reanalysis (NARR) project as mentioned in this paper uses the NCEP Eta model and its Data Assimilation System (at 32-km-45-layer resolution with 3-hourly output) to capture regional hydrological cycle, the diurnal cycle and other important features of weather and climate variability.

TL;DR: A real-time and retrospective North American Land Data Assimilation System (NLDAS) is presented in this article, which consists of four land models executing in parallel in uncoupled mode, common hourly surface forcing, and common streamflow routing: all using a 1/8° grid over the continental United States.

Assessing objective techniques for gauge-based analyses of global daily precipitation
Mingyue Chen,Wei Shi,Pingping Xie,Viviane B. S. Silva,Vernon E. Kousky,R. Wayne Higgins,John E. Janowiak +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, three objective techniques used to obtain gauge-based daily precipitation analyses over global land areas are assessed, including the inverse distance weighting algorithms of Cressman (1959), Shepard (1968), and the optimal interpolation (OI) method of Gandin (1965).
Journal ArticleDOI
Relationships between Climate Variability and Fluctuations in Daily Precipitation over the United States
TL;DR: In this article, the authors identified and linked the leading sources of interannual and interdecadal climate variability over the United States during the period 1948-2004 and identified the frequency of daily precipitation occurrence and in the intensity of daily rainfall over the USA.
Journal ArticleDOI
An Improved Gridded Historical Daily Precipitation Analysis for Brazil
TL;DR: In this article, a gauge-only precipitation data quality control and analysis system has been developed for monitoring precipitation at NOAA's Climate Prediction Center (CPC), which has been used to develop and deliver many different precipitation products over the United States, Mexico and Central and South America.
