Rainfall (Hardback)

This book provides chapters with subjects ranging from the basic understanding of rainfall variability to the impact of climate change with novel methodologies and concepts. This book is mainly intended for post-graduate doctoral students and early career researchers for their use in academic and research programs. This book compiles the chapters with different data sets that are publicly available and from site-based measurements along with the data generation methods and modeling aspects. Rainfall plays an important role; its deficiency leads to meteorological droughts and further impacts hydrological, agricultural, and socioeconomic droughts, and its surplus causes floods over urban areas. With the advancement of technology, it is possible to determine future rainfall accurately by collating the data from observations, radar, and satellite and model simulations. The current book is of immense help in evaluating and understanding the atmospheric processes governed by the various physical laws, and the results of the chapters provide deep insight for a better understanding of rainfall phenomena across the different regions of the world.
