The Variability of Tropical Precipitation Profiles and Its Impact on Microwave Brightness Temperatures as Inferred from TRMM Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Precipitation radar and microwave radiometer data collected by the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite are used to study the variability of precipitation profiles and the relationship between precipitation ...
Possible Misidentification of Rain Type by TRMM PR over Tibetan Plateau
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Rain-type statistics derived from Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) precipitation radar (PR) standard product show that some 70% of raining pixels in the central Tibetan Plateau summer are stratiform?a clear ...
Characteristics of VIRS Signals within Pixels of TRMM PR for Warm Rain in the Tropics and Subtropics
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: any data-merging studies of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite involve the integration of high-resolution Visible and Infrared Scanner (VIRS) signals (~2 km) with low-resolution Precipitation Radar ...
Life Cycle Effects on the Vertical Structure of Precipitation in East China Measured by Himawari-8 and GPM DPR
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWe identified precipitating systems from May to August 2016 using data from the Global Precipitation Measurement mission Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar instrument. Then, using this set of cases, Himawari-8 ...
Using Mean Flow Change as a Proxy to Infer Interdecadal Storm Track Variability
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Several recent studies, based mainly on analyses of reanalysis data, have suggested that the Northern Hemisphere storm tracks have intensified during the second half of the twentieth century. However, comparisons with ...
Interdecadal Variations in Northern Hemisphere Winter Storm Track Intensity
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this paper, the interannual variations in the Northern Hemisphere winter storm tracks have been examined based on 51 winters (December?January?February) of NCEP?NCAR reanalysis data. The leading empirical orthogonal ...
1997/98 El Niño–Induced Changes in Rainfall Vertical Structure in the East Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he 1997/98 El Niño?induced changes in rainfall vertical structure in the east Pacific (EP) are investigated by using collocated Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) precipitation radar (PR) and associated daily SST ...
The Impact of Convective Overshooting on the Thermal Structure over the Tibetan Plateau in Summer Based on TRMM, COSMIC, Radiosonde, and Reanalysis Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Evaluation of Atmospheric Precipitable Water Characteristics and Trends in Mainland China from 1995 to 2012
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractVariations and trends of atmospheric precipitable water (APW) are examined using radiosonde data from Integrated Global Radiosonde Archive (IGRA) and China Meteorological Administration (CMA) from 1995 to 2012 in ...
