A total of 69 locations, most with data covering the period 1900–96 were used. Data availability in much of the Canadian Arctic was restricted to 1948–96. By using daily data, improved corrections to precipitation data, not practical with monthly data, could be implemented. For each of three rain gauge types, corrections to account for wind undercatch and evaporation were implemented. Gauge specific wetting loss corrections were applied for each rainfall event. For snowfall, ruler measurements were used throughout the time series, to minimize potential discontinuities introduced by the adoption of Nipher shielded snow gauge measurements in the mid‐1960s. Density corrections based upon coincident ruler and Nipher measurements were applied to all ruler measurements.

This parameterization is based on a plume ensemble concept similar to that originally proposed by Arakawa and Schubert (1974). However, it employs three assumptions which significantly simplify the formulation and implementation of the scheme. It is assumed that an ensemble of convective‐scale updrafts with associated saturated downdrafts may exist when the atmosphere is locally conditionally unstable in the lower troposphere. However, the updraft ensemble is comprised only of those plumes which are sufficiently buoyant to penetrate through this unstable layer. It is assumed that all such plumes have the same upward mass flux at the base of the convective layer. The third assumption is that moist convection, which occurs only when there is convective available potential energy (CAPE) for reversible ascent of an undiluted parcel from the sub‐cloud layer, acts to remove CAPE at an exponential rate with a specified...","PeriodicalId":239773,"journal":{"name":"Data, Models and Analysis","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1995-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132926583","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
