RISApplication 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 ...
An Assessment of the First- and Second-Generation Navy Operational Precipitation Retrieval Algorithms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Rainfall estimates produced from the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) data have been utilized operationally by the United States Navy since the launch of the first SSM/I sensor in June of 1987. The navy initially ...
Tropical Oceanic Precipitation Changes after the 1991 Pinatubo Eruption
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Passive microwave channels like those flown on the Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) contain two primary types of information on oceanic precipitation: condensate below the freezing level and precipitation-size ...
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) ...
Critical Analyses of Data Differences between FNMOC and AFGWC Spawned SSM/I Datasets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Antenna temperatures and the corresponding geolocation data from the five sources of the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager data from the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program F11 satellite have been characterized. Data ...
