RISPrecipitation Retrieval over Land and Ocean with the SSM/I: Identification and Characteristics of the Scattering Signal
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The subject of this study is the identification of precipitation in warm and cold land and ocean environments from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program's (DMSP) Special Sensor Micmwave/Imager (SSM/I). The high ...
Application of Airborne Passive Microwave Observations for Monitoring Inland Flooding Caused by Tropical Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Inland flooding from tropical cyclones is a significant factor in storm-related deaths in the United States and other countries, with the majority of tropical cyclone fatalities recorded in the United States resulting from ...
High-Resolution Passive Microwave Observations of Convective Systems over the Tropical Pacific Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper presents high-resolution passive microwave measurements obtained in the western Pacific warm pool region. These measurements represent the most comprehensive such observations of convection over the tropical ...
High-Resolution Imaging of Rain Systems with the Advanced Microwave Precipitation Radiometer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An Advanced Microwave Precipitation Radiometer (AMPR) has been developed and flown in the NASA ER-2 high-altitude aircraft for imaging various atmospheric and surface processes, primarily the internal structure of rain ...
Classification of Tropical Oceanic Precipitation using High-Altitude Aircraft Microwave and Electric Field Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the 1998 and 2001 hurricane seasons of the western Atlantic Ocean and Gulf of Mexico, the Advanced Microwave Precipitation Radiometer (AMPR), the ER-2 Doppler (EDOP) radar, and the Lightning Instrument Package (LIP) ...
