Generating surfaces of daily meteorological variables over large regions of complex terrain
TLDR
In this paper, a method for generating daily surfaces of temperature, precipitation, humidity, and radiation over large regions of complex terrain is presented, based on the spatial convolution of a truncated Gaussian weighting filter with the set of station locations.About:

Evaluating uncertainty introduced to process-based simulation model estimates by alternative sources of meteorological data
TL;DR: In this paper, the impacts of using on-site observed precipitation and temperature with estimated solar radiation, and off-site entirely observed meteorological data was tested on the model's yield estimates.

Estimating mean monthly incident solar radiation on horizontal and inclined slopes from mean monthly temperatures extremes.
TL;DR: A set of general equations are set forth that allow both diffuse and direct solar radiation to be estimated for each month on the basis of mean daily maximum and minimum temperatures, latitude, elevation, slope, and aspect and test the equations on various slopes and under different climatic conditions.

Snow Distribution and Melt Modeling for Mittivakkat Glacier, Ammassalik Island, Southeast Greenland
TL;DR: In this article, a physically based snow-evolution modeling system (SnowModel) that includes four submodels (MicroMet, EnBal, SnowPack, and SnowTran-3D) was used to simulate five full-year evolutions of snow accumulation, distribution, sublimation, and surface melt on the Mittivakkat Glacier, in southeast Greenland.

A Statistical-Topographic Model for Mapping Climatological Precipitation over Mountainous Terrain
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an analytical model that distributes point measurements of monthly and annual precipitation to regularly spaced grid cells in midlatitude regions, using a combination of climatological and statistical concepts to analyze orographic precipitation.

A general model of forest ecosystem processes for regional applications I. Hydrologic balance, canopy gas exchange and primary production processes
TL;DR: In this paper, an ecosystem process model is described that calculates the carbon, water and nitrogen cycles through a forest ecosystem, which uses leaf area index (lai) to quantify the forest structure important for energy and mass exchange, and represents a key simplification for regional scale applications.

On the relationship between incoming solar radiation and daily maximum and minimum temperature
TL;DR: In this article, a relationship between atmospheric transmittance and the daily range of air temperature is developed, where the relationship is Tt = A[1 −exp(exp(BΔTc)] where Tt is the daily total atmospherictransmittance, ΔT is the average air temperature, and A, B, and C are empirical coefficients, determined for a particular location from measured solar radiation data.
