Fifth International Conference on Precipitation, Crete, Greece, June 14-16, 1995

第五届国际降水会议将于1995年6月14日至16日在希腊克里特岛举行。按照前四次会议的传统，本次会议旨在促进气象学家、水文学家、数学家和统计学家之间的跨学科互动。会议的中心主题将是研究与降雨的随机和动态描述相联系的问题，以便进行建模、估计和预测。重点将特别放在下列题目上：(a)降水动力学；(b)时空变异性和统计特征；(c)动力学和随机描述之间的联系；(d)物理和/或统计理论在发展降雨估计/检索算法方面的应用

9418612 Foufoula-Georgiou The Fifth International Conference on Precipitation will be held in Crete, Greece in June 14-16, 1995. Following the tradition of the previous four conferences this meeting aims at fostering interdisciplinary interaction between meteorologists, hydrologists, mathematicians and statisticians. The central theme of the conference will be research issues related to the problem of linking stochastic and dynamic of descriptions of rainfall for the purpose of modeling, estimation, and forecasting. In particular, emphasis will be placed on the following topics: (a) precipitation dynamics, (b) space-time variability and statistical characterization, (c) linkages between dynamics and stochastic descriptions, and (d) applications of physical and/or statistical theories in the development of rainfall estimation/retrieval algorithms
