The explicit modeling of rain and all its applications, such            as basin.scale hydrology, require complete description of the                   structure of the rain field in both space and time; an accurate                 determination of the temporal and spatial scaling parameters is                 therefore important.  Previous research in the spatial domain                   suggests that the rain field exhibits an anisotropic scaling                    characterized by an elliptical dimension of about 2.22.  Under                  this project, Professor Tsonis will extend the fractal analysis                 to the time domain.  The analysis will provide necessary scaling                parameters for characterizing the evolution of rain and will also               serve as a direct test of Taylor's hypothesis of "frozen                        turbulence".
