  • Response to Comments the Authors Thank the Reviewers for Their
    Response to comments The authors thank the reviewers for their constructive comments, which provide the basis to improve the quality of the manuscript and dataset. We address all points in detail and reply to all comments here below. We also updated SCDNA from V1 to V1.1 on Zenodo based on the reviewer’s comments. The modifications include adding station source flag, adding original files for location merged stations, and adding a quality control procedure based on the final SCDNA. SCDNA estimates are generally consistent between the two versions, with the total number of stations reduced from 27280 to 27276. Reviewer 1 General comment The manuscript presents and advertises a very interesting dataset of temperature and precipitation observation collected over several years in North America. The work is certainly well suited for the readership of ESSD and it is overall very important for the meteorological and climatological community. Furthermore, creation of quality controlled databases is an important contribution to the scientific community in the age of data science. I have a few points to consider before publication, which I recommend, listed below. 1. Measurement instruments: from my background, I am much closer to the instruments themselves (and their peculiarities and issues), as hardware tools. What I missed here was a description of the stations and their instruments. Questions like: which are the instruments deployed in the stations? How is precipitation measured (tipping buckets? buckets? Weighing gauges? Note for example that some instruments may have biases when measuring snowfall while others may not)? How is it temperature measured? How is this different from station to station in your database? Response: We have added the descriptions of measurement instruments in both the manuscript and dataset documentation.

  • Creating an Atmosphere for STEM Literacy in the Rural South Through
    JOURNAL OF GEOSCIENCE EDUCATION 63, 105–115 (2015) Creating an Atmosphere for STEM Literacy in the Rural South Through Student-Collected Weather Data Lynn Clark,1,a Saswati Majumdar,1 Joydeep Bhattacharjee,2 and Anne Case Hanks3 ABSTRACT This paper is an examination of a teacher professional development program in northeast Louisiana, that provided 30 teachers and their students with the technology, skills, and content knowledge to collect data and explore weather trends. Data were collected from both continuous monitoring weather stations and simple school-based weather stations to better understand core disciplinary ideas connecting Life and Earth sciences. Using a curricular model that combines experiential and place-based educational approaches to create a rich and relevant atmosphere for STEM learning, the goal of the program was to empower teachers and their students to engage in ongoing data collection analysis that could contribute to greater understanding and ownership of the environment at the local and regional level. The program team used a mixed- methodological approach that examined implementation at the site level and student impact. Analysis of teacher and student surveys, teacher interviews and classroom observation data suggest that the level of implementation of the program related directly to the ways in which students were using the weather data to develop STEM literacy. In particular, making meaning out of the data by studying patterns, interpreting the numbers, and comparing with long-term data from other sites seemed to drive critical thinking and STEM literacy in those classrooms that fully implemented the program. Findings also suggest that the project has the potential to address the unique needs of traditionally underserved students in the rural south, most notably, those students in high-needs rural settings that rely on an agrarian economy.

    By: ESSA RAMADAN MOHAMMAD Superintendent O f Stations Kuwait Met. Departmentt Geoggpyraphy and climate Kuwait consists mostly of desert and little difference in elevation. It has nine islands, the largest of which is Bubiyan, which is linked to the mainland by a concrete bridge. Summers (April to October) are extremely hot and dry with temperatures exceeding 51 °C(124°F) in Kuwait City several times during the hottest months of June, July and August. April and October are more moderate with temperatures over 40 °C uncommon . Winters (November through February) are cool with some precipitation and average temperatures around 13 °C(56°F) with extremes from ‐2 °Cto27°C. The spring season (Marc h) iswarmand pltleasant with occasilional thund ers torms. Surface coastal water temperatures range from 15 °C(59°F) in February to 35 °C(95°F) in August. The driest months are June through September, while the wettest are January through March. Thunderstorms and hailstorms are common in November, March and April when warm and moist Arabian Gulf air collides with cold air masses from Europe. One such thunderstorm in November 1997 dumped more than ten inches of rain on Kuwait.

  • The Effect of Thermometer Screen Design on the Observed Temperature
    WORLD METEOROLOGICAL ORGANIZATION THE EFFECT OF THERMOMETER SCREEN DESIGN ON THE OBSERVED TEMPERATURE by W. R. ~~!A!iKS CIMO Rapporteur on Measurement of Surface Temperature I WMO • No. 315 I .Secretariat of the World Meteorological Organization - Geneva • Switzerland 1972 .: s \. s ~.) :~·., . : ~:· r 1.• s· 2 Y l_ s P~s FOREWORD The fact that a thermometer screen creates its own micro-environment has been realized since temperature measurements were first taken on a systematic basis. The magnitude of the effects of the screen and screen design have thus been studied by investigators in many parts of the world. Mr. W. R. Sparks has reviewed a large number of published studies to identify the aspects of thermometer screen design, exposure and use that affect the tempera­ ture measured inside the screen. In addition he has compiled an extensive biblio­ graphy and completed a survey of the types of thermometer screens currently used by meteorological services. I believe that the present report will be welcomed as a very thorough review of this subject and it gives me great pleasure to extend my appreciation, on behalf of the WMO, to Mr. Sparks for the time and effort he has put into its preparation. ~· D. A. Davies Secretary-General SUMMARY The author has stated that the purpose of this publication is to identify, through a review of existing literature, those aspects of thermometer screen design, exposure and use that affect the temperature measured in a screen. In carrying out this comprehensive review he has referred to a large number of published studies, the earliest dating back to 1869, the most recent being published in 1969.

  • Increasing Availability of Agriculturally Relevant Weather Data [Phase 1]
    Increasing availability of agriculturally relevant weather data [Phase 1] Submitted to: BC Grain Producers Association P.O. Box 6004, Fort St. John, BC V1J 4H6 Submitted by: Weather INnovations Consulting LP P.O. Box 23005, Chatham, ON N7L 0B1 Project Investigator: Andrew Nadler Phone: 204-291-0874 E-mail: [email protected] April 30, 2014 Executive Summary Weather INnovations Consulting LP was hired to provide a needs assessment of agricultural weather monitoring within the Peace River Region of BC. The study reviews agriculture-related decision support tools (DST’s), meteorological monitoring, existing networks, gap analyses, data handling options, and provides recommendations for how to proceed. Within the region, there are several existing monitoring networks and a few agriculture-related weather information providers. Between the existing weather stations, there are some significant monitoring gaps that would need to be addressed in order to provide adequate coverage of the region. To achieve reasonable coverage of the agricultural areas, a minimum of 10 additional weather stations are recommended. These new stations should be established in cooperation with local stakeholders, including producers, businesses, and local governments such as cities, towns, and the Peace River Regional District (PRRD). A cost-sharing program would be the most effective means of encouraging individuals and businesses to invest in weather monitoring. It is important to consider the ongoing costs of monitoring stations. To make use of existing data, the region is strongly urged to collaborate with other weather providers. Part of this collaboration would be to participate in the Climate Related Monitoring Program (CRMP). The CRMP provides knowledge, information, methods, procedures, experience, and expertise, as well as data sharing and archiving.
