Abstract: Global precipitation measurements from space-based radars and microwave radiometers have been the subject of numerous studies during the past decade. Rainfall retrievals over land from spaceborne microwave radiometers ...

Abstract: Based on the fundamental relationship involving the interaction of microwave radiation with precipitation, microwave-based satellite precipitation estimates hold the most promise for quantitative rain estimation from space. ...

Abstract: The simulation of explicit particle spectra during cloud evolution by a two-dimensional spectral cloud model was used to investigate the response of microwave radiative transfer to particle spectra development with special ...

Abstract: The second WetNet Precipitation Intercomparison Project (PIP-2) evaluates the performance of 20 satellite precipitation retrieval algorithms, implemented for application with Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) passive ...
