Telerilevamento da satellite di eventi precipitativi: analisi sul bacino del Trasimeno

P. Basili, S. Bonafoni, R. Biondi, A. Serpolla, E. Bocci

Atti Conferenza ASITA 2005

Simultaneous rainfall analyses using AMSU/HSB and AMSR-E passive microwave measurements and thermal infrared measurements from MODIS on board the spacecraft AQUA are presented for several rainy events over the Mediterranean area and, particularly, over the Trasimeno lake, in the central Italy. The threshold for rainfall identification and the rain rate retrieval respectively from thermal infrared and microwave brightness temperatures were compared with ground-based raingauge measurements acquired in the Trasimeno lake area, evaluating also the performances of different retrieval algorithms ... >>>

Analisi e previsione di temperature minime e di gelate sul bacino del Trasimeno

P. Basili, S. Bonafoni, R. Biondi

Atti Conferenza ASITA 2005

The growing interest for the monitoring of Trasimeno Lake (Central Italy) has led on the frost and minimum temperature forecast on the basin. Such atmospheric parameters affect the Trasimeno area climatology, the quality and quantity of the agricultural productions and the lake water level. Besides such analysis, a web site is under construction, where these real-time forecasts and the meteorological data will be available for interested users. The available database offers data collected from 8 weather stations placed on the Trasimeno basin since 1988. For extreme temperature forecast a statistic regressive algorithm has been implemented
using data collected until the end of 2003. The same dataset has been employed to train suitable neural networks ... >>>

Telerilevamento di eventi precipitativi da satellite con sensori a infrarosso

P. Basili, S. Bonafoni, R. Biondi, F. Pelliccia

Atti RINEM 2006

Simultaneous rainfall analyses using AMSR-E passive microwave measurements and thermal infrared measurements from MODIS on board the spacecraft AQUA are presented for several rainy events over the Mediterranean area and, particularly, over the Trasimeno lake, in the central Italy. The performances of the algorithm for rainfall identification and for the rain rate retrieval from thermal infrared channels are compared with the rain rate retrieval from microwave brightness temperatures and with ground-based raingauge measurements acquired in the Trasimeno lake area ... >>>

Analisi e previsione di temperature minime e di gelate sul bacino del Trasimeno

RIAM 04/2006

The growing interest for the monitoring of Trasimeno Lake (Central Italy) has led to the frost and minimum temperature forecast on the basin. Such atmospheric varibales affect the Trasimeno area climatology, the quality and quantity of the agricultural productions and the lake water level. Besides such analysis, a web site is under construction, where these real-time forecasts and the meteorological data will be available for interested users. In fact real-time forecast of severe temperatures can be carried out exploiting a network of meteorological sensors acquiring and sending data to a centre every half an hour. The available database offers data collected from 4 weather stations placed on the Trasimeno basin since 1988. For extreme temperature forecast a statistic regressive algorithm has been implemented using data collected until the end of 2003 ... >>>
