Assessment of Rainfall Frequencies from Global Precipitation Datasets by Xueyi Yin, Ziyang Zhang, Zhi Lin, Jun Yin

“…Specifically, these differences are as high as 41.8% for the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) and 74.8% for the fifth-generation European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Reanalysis (ERA5), which are much larger than the differences in mean rainfall rates but can be partially corrected by redefining wet days with higher rainfall thresholds. …”

Modeling PM2.5 Urban Pollution Using Machine Learning and Selected Meteorological Parameters by Jan Kleine Deters, Rasa Zalakeviciute, Mario Gonzalez, Yves Rybarczyk

“…In addition to the impact of urbanization, motorization, and rapid population growth, particulate pollution is modulated by meteorological factors and geophysical characteristics, which complicate the implementation of the most advanced models of weather forecast. Thus, this paper proposes a machine learning approach based on six years of meteorological and pollution data analyses to predict the concentrations of PM2.5 from wind (speed and direction) and precipitation levels. …”

The crane radar: Development and deployment of an operational eco-digital twin by K. De Koning

“…Their main strength is informing decision makers in an operational environment by giving detailed up-to-date information about the systems represented in the digital twins, such as industrial production systems or weather forecasts. By running continuous predictions, digital twins evolve synchronous with the real world and related data, making digital twins a particularly powerful tool to study systems that are changing beyond their historic realm. …”
