Identification of Vertical Profiles of Reflectivity for Correction of Volumetric Radar Data Using Rainfall Classification
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Nonuniform beam filling associated with the vertical variation of atmospheric reflectivity is an important source of error in the estimation of rainfall rates by radar. It is, however, possible to correct for this error ...
A Physically Based Identification of Vertical Profiles of Reflectivity from Volume Scan Radar Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he vertical profile of reflectivity (VPR) must be identified to correct estimations of rainfall rates by radar for the nonuniform beam filling associated with the vertical variation of radar reflectivity. A method for ...
How frequent is precipitation over the contiguous United States? Perspectives from ground-based and space-borne radars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: igh temporal and spatial resolution observations of precipitation occurrence from the NEXRAD-based Multi-Radar Multi-Sensor System (MRMS) are compared to matched observations from CloudSat for three years over the contiguous ...
Naïve Bayesian Precipitation Type Retrieval from Satellite Using a Cloud-Top and Ground-Radar Matched Climatology
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: atellite-based precipitation estimates are a vital resource for hydrologic applications in data-sparse regions of the world, particularly at daily or longer time scales. With the launch of a new generation of high-resolution ...
Performance of IMERG as a Function of Spatiotemporal Scale
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he Integrated Multisatellite Retrievals for GPM (IMERG), a global high-resolution gridded precipitation dataset, will enable a wide range of applications, ranging from studies on precipitation characteristics to applications ...
Evaluation of IMERG Satellite Precipitation over the Land–Coast–Ocean Continuum. Part I: Detection
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Toward Predicting Flood Event Peak Discharge in Ungauged Basins by Learning Universal Hydrological Behaviors with Machine Learning
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Bollène-2002 Experiment: Radar Quantitative Precipitation Estimation in the Cévennes–Vivarais Region, France
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Bollène-2002 Experiment was aimed at developing the use of a radar volume-scanning strategy for conducting radar rainfall estimations in the mountainous regions of France. A developmental radar processing system, called ...
Comparing Satellite and Surface Rainfall Products over West Africa at Meteorologically Relevant Scales during the AMMA Campaign Using Error Estimates
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Monsoon rainfall is central to the climate of West Africa, and understanding its variability is a challenge for which satellite rainfall products could be well suited to contribute to. Their quality in this region has ...
Multiple-Scattering-Induced “Ghost Echoes” in GPM DPR Observations of a Tornadic Supercell
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: vidence of multiple-scattering-induced pulse stretching for the signal of both frequencies of the Dual-Frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) on the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission Core Observatory satellite ...
