Synthesis of sequences of summer thunderstorm volumes for the Atterbury Watershed in the Tucson area.
In this study an attempt is made to represent summer thunderstorm occurrences in the Tucson area using simple probabilistic principles and a digital computer. The purpose of the model is to forecast many of the characteristics of the summer thunderstorms (storm duration; time between storms; storm d...
