Spatial Downscaling of GPM Annual and Monthly Precipitation Using Regression-Based Algorithms in a Mountainous Area by Chesheng Zhan, Jian Han, Shi Hu, Liangmeizi Liu, Yuxuan Dong

“…The results showed that (1) GWR performed much better than MLR to regress precipitation on Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) and Digital Elevation Model (DEM); (2) coefficients of GWR models showed strong spatial nonstationarity, but the spatial mean standardized coefficients were very similar to standardized coefficients of MLR in terms of intra-annual patterns: generally NDVI was positively related to precipitation when monthly precipitation was under 166 mm; DEM was negatively related to precipitation, especially in wet months like July and August; contribution of DEM to precipitation was greater than that of NDVI; (3) residuals’ correction was indispensable for the MLR-based algorithm but should be removed from the GWR-based algorithm; (4) the GWR-based algorithm rather than the MLR-based algorithm produced more accurate precipitation than original GPM precipitation. …”

“…We propose that volcanic rocks can be distinguished from carbonates by the temporal and spatial coupling of typical features: (a) surface volcanic rocks and subsurface intrusive bodies are inseparable, with igneous rocks identifiable through faults and volcanic conduits; (b) carbonates typically display symmetrical structures on both sides of the highland and exhibit better stratification away from igneous activity; (c) carbonates generally show a convex clinoform and steep slope at the platform margin, while volcanic mounds exhibit concave gentle slopes. …”
