Provenance evidence

Awaiting sign-off

Published value · assessed by provenance-audit · 2026-09-01. Agent assessment is evidence preparation, not human verification.

Impact of temporal resolution of precipitation forcing data on modelled urban-atmosphere exchanges and surface conditionsParameter source

Where: Equations 3-4 and Table 1, Swindon model inputs, p. 651-652

Publishes drainage coefficients and the surface-specific wetness thresholds and moisture-storage capacities used for the Swindon grid point.

Assessment findings

Namesupported
The label identifies the published parameter class or model configuration.
Targetsupported
The source uses the parameter for the same SUEWS target represented by the record.
Valuessupported
The cited locator publishes the stored values at the available precision.
Sourcesupported
The cited source is a direct parameter publication or an explicit published model-input table.
Placesupported
The record now names the Swindon measurement-site grid point for which the published inputs were used.
Representativenesssupported
The record is classed site, matching the paper's description of inputs representative of the area surrounding the Swindon measurement site rather than south-east England as a region.
Methodsupported
The production or literature-compilation method is stated in the source.
Identitysupported
Stable path, target, source and values identify one retained database record.

Scientific note

All stored values are recoverable from the original article and apply to the Swindon measurement-site grid point. The canonical place and evidence reach are therefore Swindon and site.
