Sensitivity of Rain-Rate Estimates Related to Convective Organization: Observations from the Kwajalein, RMI, Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: round radar rainfall, necessary for satellite rainfall product (e.g., TRMM and GPM) ground validation (GV) studies, is often retrieved using annual or climatological convective/stratiform Z?R relationships. Using the ...
Evaluating Convective Initiation in High-Resolution Numerical Weather Prediction Models Using GOES-16 Infrared Brightness Temperatures
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
ENSO Influence on TRMM Tropical Oceanic Precipitation Characteristics and Rain Rates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractDiscrepancies between Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) and Precipitation Radar (PR) oceanic rainfall retrievals are prevalent between El Niño and La Niña conditions with TMI exhibiting ...
A Multisensor Perspective on the Radiative Impacts of Clouds and Aerosols
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he launch of CloudSat and Cloud?Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observations (CALIPSO) in 2006 provided the first opportunity to incorporate information about the vertical distribution of cloud and aerosols ...
The Global Character of the Flux of Downward Longwave Radiation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: our different types of estimates of the surface downwelling longwave radiative flux (DLR) are reviewed. One group of estimates synthesizes global cloud, aerosol, and other information in a radiation model that is used to ...
The Polar Radiant Energy in the Far Infrared Experiment: A New Perspective on Polar Longwave Energy Exchanges
