A comparative analysis of TRMM-rain gauge data merging techniques at the daily time scale for distributed rainfall-runoff modeling applications
Nerini, D.; Zulkafli, Z.; Wang, L.-P.; Onof, C.; Buytaert, W.; Lavado-Casimiro, W.; Guyot, J.L.
(American Meteorological Society, 2015-01)Acceso abiertoThis study compares two nonparametric rainfall data merging methods-the mean bias correction and double-kernel smoothing-with two geostatistical methods-kriging with external drift and Bayesian combination-for optimizing ... -
A comparative performance analysis of TRMM 3B42 (TMPA) versions 6 and 7 for hydrological applications over Andean-Amazon river basins
Zulkafli, Z.; Buytaert, W.; Onof, C.; Manz, B.; Tarnavsky, E.; Lavado-Casimiro, W.; Guyot, J.L.
(American Meteorological Society, 2014-04)Acceso abiertoThe Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission 3B42 precipitation estimates are widely used in tropical regions for hydrometeorological research. Recently, version 7 of the product was released. Major revisions to the algorithm ... -
A critical assessment of the JULES land surface model hydrology for humid tropical environments
Zulkafli, Z.; Buytaert, W.; Onof, C.; Lavado-Casimiro, W.; Guyot, J.L.
(Hydrology and Earth System Sciences (HESS), 2013-01)Acceso abiertoGlobal land surface models (LSMs) such as the Joint UK Land Environment Simulator (JULES) are originally developed to provide surface boundary conditions for climate models. They are increasingly used for hydrological ... -
High-resolution satellite-gauge merged precipitation climatologies of the tropical Andes
Manz, B.; Buytaert, W.; Zulkafli, Z.; Lavado-Casimiro, W.; Willems, B.; Robles, L.A.; Rodríguez-Sánchez, Juan-Pablo
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2016-02-09)Acceso abiertoSatellite precipitation products are becoming increasingly useful to complement rain gauge networks in regions where these are too sparse to capture spatial precipitation patterns, such as in the Tropical Andes. The Tropical ... -
Projected increases in the annual flood pulse of the Western Amazon
Zulkafli, Z.; Buytaert, W.; Manz, B.; Rosas, C.V.; Willems, P.; Lavado-Casimiro, W.; Guyot, J.L.; Santini, W.
(Institute of Physics Publishing, 2016-01)Acceso abiertoThe impact of a changing climate on the Amazon basin is a subject of intensive research because of its rich biodiversity and the significant role of rainforests in carbon cycling. Climate change has also a direct hydrological ...
