Persistent Nature of Secondary Diurnal Modes of Precipitation over Oceanic and Continental Regimes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This investigation seeks a better understanding of the assorted mechanisms controlling the global distribution of diurnal precipitation variability based on the use of the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) microwave ...
A Physically Based, Meshless Lagrangian Approach to Simulate Melting Precipitation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Mathematical–Physical Framework for Retrieval of Rain DSD Properties from Dual-Frequency Ku–Ka-Band Satellite Radar
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In developing the upcoming Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission, a dual-frequency Ku?Ka-band radar system will be used to measure rainfall in such a fashion that the reflectivity ratio intrinsic to the measurement ...

The Microwave Radiative Properties of Falling Snow Derived from Nonspherical Ice Particle Models. Part II: Initial Testing Using Radar, Radiometer and In Situ Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: n this study, two different particle models describing the structure and electromagnetic properties of snow are developed and evaluated for potential use in satellite combined radar?radiometer precipitation estimation ...
The Microwave Radiative Properties of Falling Snow Derived from Nonspherical Ice Particle Models. Part I: An Extensive Database of Simulated Pristine Crystals and Aggregate Particles, and Their Scattering Properties
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: 3D growth model is used to simulate pristine ice crystals, which are aggregated using a collection algorithm to create larger, multicrystal particles. The simulated crystals and aggregates have mass-versus-size and fractal ...
