RISDevelopment of a Cloud-Top Height Estimation Method by Geostationary Satellite Split-Window Measurements Trained with CloudSat Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Lookup tables for estimating the cloud-top height and visible optical thickness of upper-tropospheric clouds by the infrared brightness temperature TB at 10.8 ?m (T11) and its difference from TB at 12 ?m (?T11?12) measured ...
A Removal Filter for Suspicious Extreme Rainfall Profiles in TRMM PR 2A25 Version-7 Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study reports on the presence of suspicious ?extreme rainfall? data in the 2A25 version-7 (V7) product of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) precipitation radar (PR) dataset and introduces a simple method ...
Improvements in Detection of Light Precipitation with the Global Precipitation Measurement Dual-Frequency Precipitation Radar (GPM DPR)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper demonstrates the impact of the enhancement in detectability by the dual-frequency precipitation radar (DPR) on board the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) core observatory. By setting two minimum detectable ...
Large-Scale Environmental Conditions Related to Midsummer Extreme Rainfall Events around Japan in the TRMM Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThe precipitation characteristics of extreme events in August determined from 13 years of satellite data around Japan in the TRMM observation region and their relationship with large-scale environmental conditions ...
Regional Characteristics of Extreme Rainfall Extracted from TRMM PR Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: haracteristics and global distribution of regional extreme rainfall are presented using 12 yr of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Precipitation Radar (PR) measurements. By considering each rainfall event as ...
Reproducibility of Summer Precipitation over Northern Eurasia in CMIP5 Multiclimate Models

Spatial Contrast of Geographically Induced Rainfall Observed by TRMM PR
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractIn this study, the spatial variability in precipitation at a 0.1° scale is investigated using long-term data from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Precipitation Radar. Marked regional heterogeneities emerged ...
Fine Structure of Vertical Motion in the Stratiform Precipitation Region Observed by a VHF Doppler Radar Installed in Sumatra, Indonesia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Vertical motion W profiles in the stratiform precipitation region of mesoscale cloud clusters were investigated using wind data observed by VHF Doppler radar installed in western Sumatra Island (0.2°S, 100.32°E). A special ...
Impact of Long-Term Observation on the Sampling Characteristics of TRMM PR Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: bservations of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission Precipitation Radar (TRMM PR) over 16 yr yielded hundreds of large precipitation systems (≥100 km) for each 0.1° grid over major rainy regions. More than 90% of the ...
