This title gives an authoritative look at the use of Geographical Information Systems (GIS) in climatology and meterology. GIS provides a range of strategies, from traditional methods, such as those for hydromet database analysis and management, to new developing methods. As such, this book will provide a useful reference tool in this important aspect of climatology and meterology study.

Contents : Part 1: GIS to manage and distribute climate data • GIS, climatology and meteorology • SIGMA: a web-based GIS for environmental applications • Web mapping: different solutions using GIS • Comparison of geostatistical and meteorological interpolation methods • Uncertainty from spatial sampling: a case study in the French Alps • Part 2: Spatial interpolation of climate data • The developments in spatialization of meteorological and climatological elements • The spatial analysis of selected meteorological fields in the example of Poland • Optimizing the interpolation of temperatures by GIS: a spatial analysis approach • Daily winter air temperature mapping in mountainous areas • Aspects concerning the spatialization of radiation balance components • Part 3: Demo projects • The use of GIS applications in meteorology and climatology: a need for the application of regional ecological modeling approaches • GIS application to daily fire risk mapping • Application of GIS technology on the comparisons of climatological databases: an overview of winter precipitation over Spain • Drought sensitivity research in Hungary and influence of climate change on drought sensitivity • First steps towards a new temperature climatology of the Greater Alpine Region (GAR) • XRWIS: a new GIS paradigm for winter road maintenance • Part 4: Climate-related applications • The use of GIS in climatology: challenges in fine scales applications: examples in agrometeorological and urban climate studies • Climate impact on winter land use and land cover management in Brittany • A tool for the integrated use of remote sensing with ground truth data: Demeter project • Assessing population exposure to odorous pollution from a landfill over complex terrain • Disaggregated estimation of N2O fluxes from agricultural soils of the Italian region by modelization in a GIS environment.
