Qinliang, Wang Rodriguez-Iturbe, Ignacio Prepared with support of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration grant no. NAG 5 388. Prepared with support of the National Science Foundation grant no. ATM 8420781. Eight years of summer rainstorm observations are analyzed by a dense network of 93 raingages operated by the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Agricultural Research Service, in the 150 km Walnut Gulch experimental catchment near Tucson, Arizona. Storms are defined by the total depths collected at each raingage during the noon-to-noon period for which there was depth recorded at any of the gages. For each of the resulting 428 storm days, the 93 gage depths are interpolated onto a dense grid and the resulting random field analyzed to obtain moments, isohyetal plots, spatial correlation function, variance function, and the spatial distribution of storm depth. 2022-06-13T13:12:54Z 2022-06-13T13:12:54Z 1986-08 306 https://hdl.handle.net/1721.1/143056 16670955 319094 R (Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
