Etten-Bohm, Montana (2018-10-26)The objective of this study is to determine the relationship between lightning and six large-scale environmental variables: convective available potential energy (CAPE), normalized CAPE (nCAPE), column saturation fraction ...
-
Etten-Bohm, Montana (2022-03-28)Lightning can have many societal and environmental impacts, and the ability of a global climate model (GCM) to correctly parameterize lightning has become of utmost importance as lightning has recently been named an essential ...

Choi, Hee Youl (2011-08-08)In data analysis, data points are usually analyzed based on their relations to other points (e.g., distance or inner product). This kind of relation can be analyzed on the manifold of the data set. Manifold learning is an ...

Han, Fan (2014-11-11)This thesis described a morphing-based precipitation verification strategy inspired by Keil and Craig. This strategy is based on an optical flow algorithm to morph the image (field) of the forecast precipitation into an ...
-
Han, Fan (2017-05-02)A new morphing based technique is proposed for the verification of deterministic precipitation forecasts. It provides accurate estimates of the components of the precipitation forecast error for a significantly longer range ...

Yang, Junho (2021-03-29)In this dissertation, we propose a new spectral method that could be used to overcome two issues in time series analysis. The first issue is the small sample problem. The periodogram is widely used to analyze second order ...
-
Kolodziej, Elizabeth Young (2011-10-21)In this dissertation, we explore the properties of correlation structure for spatio-temporal point processes and a quantitative spatial process. Spatio-temporal point processes are often assumed to be separable; we propose ...
