Rainfall data obtained from an optical rain gauge and a capacitive siphon rain
gauge are analyzed and discussed. These sensors were developed for unattended use
and are being considered for use at sea on ships and buoys.

Influences of time-dependent precipitation on water mass transformation, heat fluxes, and deep convection in marginal seas
Yasuda, Yuki; Spall, Michael A. (American Meteorological Society, 2015-07)Influences of time-dependent precipitation on water mass transformation and heat budgets in an idealized marginal sea are examined using theoretical and numerical models. The equations proposed by Spall in 2012 are extended ... -
Influences of precipitation on water mass transformation and deep convection
Spall, Michael A. (American Meteorological Society, 2012-10)The influences of precipitation on water mass transformation and the strength of the meridional overturning circulation in marginal seas are studied using theoretical and idealized numerical models. Nondimensional equations ... -
Implications of North Atlantic sea surface salinity for summer precipitation over the U.S. Midwest : mechanisms and predictive value
Li, Laifang; Schmitt, Raymond W.; Ummenhofer, Caroline C.; Karnauskas, Kristopher B. (American Meteorological Society, 2016-04-19)Moisture originating from the subtropical North Atlantic feeds precipitation throughout the Western Hemisphere. This ocean-to-land moisture transport leaves its imprint on sea surface salinity (SSS), enabling SSS over the ...
