Change in Rainfall Patterns Due to the Growth of an Urban Area
The changes in rainfall patterns, which evolve during the growth in size of a tropical urban area, are studied by means of model simulations. The urban area is located along a coastline. The simulated rainfall is produced by mesoscale more>> |

Climate Changes Due to the Urbanization of Metro Manila
The effect of the urbanization on temperature and on rainfall is studied by analyzing observational data. The primary data used are observations from Port Area and Science Garden. These correspond to locations in the urbanized area. These observation more>> |

Climatological Changes in Rainfall due to Urbanization
A two-dimensional, theoretical model based on the fluid dynamical equations is developed to determine the effects of urbanization on rainfall. The model is applied to a case where the urban area is located between the sea and the rural area. more>> |

Climatology of Rainfall and Wind for the Philippine-South China Sea Region Part II: Variations due to El Nino and La Nina
The characteristics of rainfall and wind during the occurrence of three El Nino episodes and one La Nina episode are studied by using observational data. The episodes correspond to the El Nino of the years 1983, 1987, and 1992, and the La Nina more>> |

Predictability of Droughts and Floods due to El Nino and La Nina Episodes
The possibility of predicting rainfall anomalies in the Philippines due to El Niño and La Niña is investigated. The data used in the investigation consist of rain gauge observations, satellite-derived rainfall and sea surface temperatures in the more>>
