摘要: Received 8 August 2003; accepted 23 October published 17 February 2004. [1] A scale-invariance analysis of rainfall retrieved during the Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment (TOGA-COARE) campaign is discussed. As already found in previous Atmospheric Research Program (GARP) Atlantic (GATE) data set, these new analyses high-intensity storms confirm evidence scale invariance under selfsimilar space-time transformations. simple interpretation this selfsimilarity accounting for hierarchical organization precipitation patterns proposed. Finally, a downscaling model based on log-Poisson generator calibrated results multifractal and applied to generation synthetic fields, reproducing observed statistical properties over wide range space scales timescales.
