Haji-Aghajany, Saeid (author), Amerian, Yazdan (author), Amiri Simkooei, A. (author)This study aims to investigate how changes in meteorological indicators affect groundwater resources, and hence to predict groundwater levels using these indicators, particularly in regions experiencing drought and subsidence. Precipitation, temperature, evapotranspiration and precipitable water vapor (PWV) are important meteorological...journal article 2023

Bogerd, Linda (author), Pinto, Rose B. (author), Leijnse, Hidde (author), Meirink, Jan Fokke (author), van Emmerik, Tim H.M. (author), Uijlenhoet, R. (author)Accurate precipitation observations are crucial for hydrological forecasts, notably over rapidly responding urban areas. This study evaluated the accuracy of three gridded spaceborne rainfall products (Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG), Meteosat Second Generation Visible (MSG-VIS), and MSG-Infrared (MSG-IR)) and the non...journal article 2023

Van Stan, John T. (author), Allen, Scott T. (author), Aubrey, Douglas P. (author), Carter Berry, Z. (author), Biddick, Matthew (author), Coenders-Gerrits, Miriam (author), Giordani, Paolo (author), Gotsch, Sybil G. (author), Gutmann, Ethan D. (author)Stormwater is a vital resource and dynamic driver of terrestrial ecosystem processes. However, processes controlling interactions during and shortly after storms are often poorly seen and poorly sensed when direct observations are substituted with technological ones. We discuss how human observations complement technological ones and the...review 2023

Fu, Y. (author)When high-temperature steels are loaded under under industrially relevant conditions not only creep (i.e. a time dependent strain increase even under nominally constant loading conditions) occurs, but also local damage is formed. At relatively short exposure times quasi-spherical micron-sized cavities form preferentially at the grain boundaries...doctoral thesis 2022

Karrer, Markus (author), Dias Neto, J. (author), von Terzi, Leonie (author), Kneifel, Stefan (author)Comparing the reflectivity flux at the top and bottom of the melting layer (ML) reveals the overall effect of the microphysical processes occurring within the ML on the particle population. If melting is the only process taking place and all particles scatter in the Rayleigh regime, the reflectivity flux increases in the ML by a constant...journal article 2022

Haji-Aghajany, Saeid (author), Amerian, Yazdan (author), Amiri Simkooei, A. (author)Precipitation is an important meteorological indicator that has a direct and significant impact on ecology, agriculture, hydrology, and other vital areas of human health and life. It is therefore essential to monitor variations of this parameter at a global and local scale. To monitor and predict long-term changes in climate elements, Global...journal article 2022

Liu, Xiaolong (author), Fu, Dafang (author), Zevenbergen, C. (author), Yu, Meixiu (author), Kumar, Alagarasan Jagadeesh (author)As a result of the fast growth of remote sensing and data assimilation technology, many global land use land cover (LULC) and climate reanalysis data sets have been used to advance our understanding of climate and environmental change. This paper investigates the precipitation variations of the Yangtze Delta Megalopolis by using precipitation...journal article 2022

Helfer, K.C. (author), Nuijens, Louise (author)A growing body of literature investigates convective organization, but few studies to date have sought to investigate how wind shear plays a role in the spatial organization of shallow (trade-wind) convection. The present study hence investigates the morphology of precipitating marine cumulus convection using large-eddy-simulation experiments...journal article 2021

Bosmans, J. H.C. (author), van der Ent, R.J. (author), Haarsma, R. J. (author), Drijfhout, S. S. (author), Hilgen, F. J. (author)Enhanced winter precipitation over the Mediterranean Sea at times of minimum precession and maximum obliquity, that is, times of enhanced insolation seasonality, could provide freshwater required to form orbitally paced sedimentary cycles across the Mediterranean, offering a possible alternative to monsoonal runoff. We investigate the sources of...journal article 2020

Versteylen, C.D. (author), Szymański, N. K. (author), Sluiter, M.H.F. (author), van Dijk, N.H. (author)In recently discovered self healing creep steels, open-volume creep cavities are filled by the precipitation of supersaturated solute. These creep cavities form on the grain boundaries oriented perpendicular to the applied stress. The presence of a free surface triggers a flux of solute from the matrix, over the grain boundaries towards the...journal article 2018

Zhang, X. (author)Multiscale computational materials science has reached a stage where many complicated phenomena or properties that are of great importance to manufacturing can be predicted or explained. The word “ab initio study” becomes commonplace as the development of density functional theory has enabled the predictions to be independent of experimental...doctoral thesis 2017

Berghuijs, W.R. (author), Larsen, Joshua R. (author), van Emmerik, T.H.M. (author), Woods, Ross A. (author)Precipitation (P) and potential evaporation (E<sub>p</sub>) are commonly studied drivers of changing freshwater availability, as aridity (E<sub>p</sub>/P) explains ∼90% of the spatial differences in mean runoff across the globe. However, it is unclear if changes in aridity over time are also the most important cause for temporal changes in...journal article 2017

Zhang, S. (author)Steel components can exhibit premature and low-ductility creep fracture, when exposed to high temperatures for long times. The failure arises from the formation, growth and coalescence of ultra-fine cracks and cavities. Self healing of damage is a promising new approach to enhance the lifetime of the steel components, in particular for...doctoral thesis 2015

Mathisen, T.A. (author), Annema, J.A. (author), Kroesen, M. (author)Weather is identified as one of many factors that influence the demand for cycling. Weather patterns will change due to expected climate change. The aim of this article is to study the extent to which climate change influences the cycling frequency. The analysis in this article is conducted using an econometric model based on data spanning over...journal article 2015

Ott, H. (author), Roels, S.M. (author), De Kloe, K. (author)Drying and salt precipitation in geological formations can have serious consequences for upstream operations in terms of injectivity and productivity. Here we investigate the consequences of supercritical CO2 injection in sandstones. The reported findings are directly relevant for CO2 sequestration and acid–gas injection operations, but might...journal article 2015

(author)About 50% of the drinking water in the Netherlands is centrally softened by the drinking water companies in a process known as pellet softening. In this process a base and seeding material are mixed in an upflow reactor, where subsequently CaCO3 precipitates on a seed core as pellets. The seeding material is usually sand, but recently CaCO3 was...conference paper 2015

Duan, Z. (author)There are millions of lakes and ten thousands of reservoirs in the world. The number of reservoirs is still increasing through the construction of large dams to meet the growing demand for water resources, hydroelectricity and economic development. Accurate information on the water balance components of lakes and reservoirs is deemed necessary...doctoral thesis 2014

Van der Ent, R.J. (author)Where does precipitation come from? It is not easy to answer this question because of the complex and energy-intensive processes that bring moisture to a certain location and cause moisture to precipitate highly heterogeneously in space and variable over time. Part of the precipitation comes from so-called “moisture recycling”, which is moisture...doctoral thesis 2014

Attema, J.J. (author), Loriaux, J.M. (author), Lenderink, G. (author)Observations of extreme (sub) hourly precipitation at midlatitudes show a large dependency on the dew point temperature often close to 14% per degree—2 times the dependency of the specific humidity on dew point temperature which is given by the Clausius–Clapeyron (CC) relation. By simulating a selection of 11 cases over the Netherlands...journal article 2014

Otto, T. (author), Russchenberg, H.W.J. (author)In 2007, the horizontally scanning polarimetric X-band radar IDRA (IRCTR Drizzle Radar) was installed on top of the 213 m high mast at the Dutch meteorological observatory Cabauw Experimental Site for Atmospheric Research (CESAR) at Netherlands. This radar complements a large variety of measurement instruments at CESAR by providing information...journal article 2013
