«This cooling reduced precipitation over Africa, and in combination with a range of other complex climate feedback mechanisms tipped the humid system towards aridification,» explains the first author of the study, James Collins from Helmholtz Centre Potsdam — GFZ German Research Centre for Geosciences and Alfred Wegener Institute — Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marine Research (AWI) in Bremerhaven.
Over the past several years, scientists from many institutions have explored the ability of SP - CAM to simulate tropical weather systems, the day - night changes of precipitation, the Asian and African monsoons, cloud - aerosol interactions and other climate phenomena.
Slow - moving weather systems are another factor in heavy precipitation, as a slower - moving system can produce more rain over particular area.
In 2010, intense precipitation concentrated over the elevated plains of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa due to interaction of three weather systems from east, south and north.
One year (August 1998ï ¿ 1/2 July 1999) of tropical rainfall estimates from the Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Networks (PERSIANN) system were used to produce monthly means of rainfall diurnal cycles at hourly and 1ï ¿ 1/2 ï ¿ 1/2 1ï ¿ 1/2 scales over a domain (30ï ¿ 1/2 Sï ¿ 1/2 30ï ¿ 1/2 N, 80ï ¿ 1/2 Eï ¿ 1/2 10ï ¿ 1/2 W) from the Americas across the Pacific Ocean to Australia and eastern Asia.
This process prevents the land — atmosphere system from sustaining precipitation over the same region and thus acts against drought or the formation of desert.
A 2013 study modeled climate and water system (hydroclimate) changes in the Western US over the next three decades and found that increased temperature is the dominant factor, likely leading to several hydroclimate changes, including: decreases in spring snow pack, increases in cold - season days above freezing, and decreases in the cold - season snow - to - precipitation ratio.
«Relatively cool waters in the eastern Pacific often result in stubborn summer high - pressure systems over the eastern states that block storms, reducing the frequency of precipitation below normal,» noted study co-author Richard Healy of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Woods Hole, Mass. «Less frequent storms result in higher surface and atmospheric temperatures that then feedback on the atmospheric circulation to further reduce storm frequency and raise surface temperatures even more.»
Monthly temperature, precipitation, 500hPa geopotential height, mean sea - level pressure and soil moisture over the entire globe are also output to assess larger scale weather systems.
We also show that this change is reflected in the tropical cyclone systems and finally on the precipitation patterns over the Indian region as they are interlinked.
