Effects of Rainfall on Vehicle Crashes in Six U.S. States
Rainfall is one of many types of weather hazard that can lead to motor vehicle crashes. To better understand the link between rainfall and crash rates, daily gridded precipitation data and automobile crash data are gathered for six U.S. states (Arkansas, Georgia, Illinois, Maryland, Minnesota, Ohio) for the period 1996–2010. A matched pair analysis is used to pair rainfall days with dry days to determine the relative risk of crash, injury, and fa…
Characteristics of Winter-Precipitation-Related Transportation Fatalities in the United States
Winter precipitation can be very disruptive to travel by aircraft and by motor vehicles. Vehicle fatalities due to winter precipitation are considered “indirect” and are not counted in Storm Data , the publication commonly used to evaluate losses from meteorological hazards. The goal of this study is to examine the spatial and temporal characteristics of these indirect transportation fatalities that involve winter precipitation for the period 197…

Understanding Greenland ice sheet hydrology using an integrated multi-scale approach
Improved understanding of Greenland ice sheet hydrology is critically important for assessing its impact on current and future ice sheet dynamics and global sea level rise. This has motivated the collection and integration of in situ observations, model development, and remote sensing efforts to quantify meltwater production, as well as its phase changes, transport, and export. Particularly urgent is a better understanding of albedo feedbacks lea…
A seasonal-scale climatological analysis correlating spring tornadic activity with antecedent fall–winter drought in the southeastern United States
Using rain gauge and satellite-based rainfall climatologies and the NOAA Storm Prediction Center tornado database (1952–2007), this study found a statistically significant tendency for fall–winter drought conditions to be correlated with below-normal tornado days the following spring in north Georgia (i.e. 93% of the years) and other regions of the Southeast. Non-drought years had nearly twice as many tornado days in the study area as drought yea…
Role Of Energy Budget Components On Snow Ablation From A Mid-Latitude Prairie Snowpack
This work considers what aspects of the surface energy budget were most important for the development of rapid snow melt during the spring of 1997 in the Red River Valley of North Dakota and Minnesota. The rapid snow melt of an exceptionally large snowpack that season led to catastrophic flooding. We use this event as a case study in order to better understand what meteorological forcings are most important with regard to rapid melting of a large…
A hybrid Climatology of Snow Water Equivalent Over the Northern Great Plains of the United States
This paper discusses the development and analysis of a hybrid climatology of snow water equivalent (SWE) for the Northern Great Plains of the United States. A physically based snowpack model (SNTHERM) was used to generate a long and complete time series of daily snowpack densities. These values were combined with daily snow depth data from over 800 cooperative observing stations to create a daily climatology of SWE on a 1° latitude by 1° longitud…
