摘要

The Storm Precipitation Analysis System (SPAS) is a sophisticated meteorological tool used torncharacterize the temporal and spatial details of rainfall events. SPAS was designed to producernstorm depth-area-duration (DAD) analyses for making objective comparisons of rainfallrnassociated with extreme storms in Probable Maximum Precipitation (PMP) studies. A SPASrnanalysis usually covers a relatively large area (generally >1000 square miles), requiresrnextensive data mining and analysis, and provides a wide range of deliverables including a fullrnstorm DAD analysis. However, hydrologic runoff model calibrations have been the catalyst tornuse SPAS to provide storm analyses over much smaller domains (generally <100 square miles)rnwith or without the DAD analysis while providing a sufficient set of deliverables for hydrologicrnmodeling purposes. The results are provided as spatially distributed rainfall (spatial resolutionrnapproximately one third square mile) over sub-basins or the average rainfall over sub-basins.rnRainfall amounts can be provided as frequent as every six minutes but are usually providedrnhourly.rnHourly rainfall observations are generally limited to a small number of locations, with manyrnbasins lacking observational rainfall data within the basin boundaries. Often Next GenerationrnWeather Radar (NEXRAD) weather radars provide coverage over these basins but lackrnreliability for determining rain rates and quantitative rainfall amounts. For basins located withinrnmountainous terrain, NEXRAD may not provide useful data in its normal scan mode because ofrnterrain blockage. NEXRAD data at higher radar scan elevations than are normally used can bernincorporated into the analyses over mountainous terrain to minimize terrain blockage problems.rnProcedures have been developed to use NEXRAD data together with rain gauge data bothrnwithin and in close proximity to basins to determine rainfall distributions within drainage basins.rnUsing rain gauge data together with NEXRAD data, rainfall fields are computed that providernreliable hourly rainfall amounts within the basin. These rainfall amounts are computed usingrnNEXRAD data that is calibrated each hour with the rainfall amounts reported at each of thernhourly rain gauge sites.rnThe spatially distributed rainfall fields are clipped to basin or sub-basin boundaries usingrngeographical information systems (GIS). Spatially distributed rainfall within the basinrnboundaries can be provided or can be averaged for each basin and/or sub-basin. Results canrnbe used for calibration and validation of run-off models for all types of rainfall events.rnThe high spatial and temporal resolution hourly rainfall allows for accurate estimates of rainfallrnvolumes over sub-basins located within relatively flat terrain as well as within topographicallyrncomplex regions. The increased accuracy of the precipitation analyses has eliminated the needrnfor commonly made assumptions about the precipitation characteristics, thereby greatlyrnimproving the precision and reliability of hydrologic runoff model results.
