High Space-Time Resolution Observation of Extreme Orographic Rain Gradients in a Pacific Island Catchment
In the vicinity of orographic barriers, interactions between mountains and prevailing winds can enhance rainfall and generate strong spatial gradients of precipitation. Orographic rainfall is still poorly quantified despite being an important driver of headwater catchment hydrology, in particular wh...
