RISValidation of Satellite Precipitation Estimates over the Congo Basin
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis paper evaluates nine satellite rainfall products and the Global Precipitation Centre Climatology (GPCC) gauge dataset over the Congo basin. For the evaluation the reference dataset is a newly created, gridded ...
New Rainfall Datasets for the Congo Basin and Surrounding Regions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractThis paper describes three new rainfall datasets that have been developed for equatorial Africa. The development relies on acquisition of recent gauge data from the relevant countries and statistical methods to ...
Validation of TRMM and Other Rainfall Estimates with a High-Density Gauge Dataset for West Africa. Part I: Validation of GPCC Rainfall Product and Pre-TRMM Satellite and Blended Products
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Gauge data over North Africa are used to provide an assessment of satellite and blended rainfall products for 1988?94 and for 1998. A comparison is also made with the Global Precipitation Climatology Center (GPCC) gauge ...
Validation of TRMM and Other Rainfall Estimates with a High-Density Gauge Dataset for West Africa. Part II: Validation of TRMM Rainfall Products
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Gauge data from a West African network of 920 stations are used to assess Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite and blended rainfall products for 1998. In this study, mean fields, scattergrams, and latitudinal ...
