RISThe Evolution of the Goddard Profiling Algorithm (GPROF) for Rainfall Estimation from Passive Microwave Sensors
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper describes the latest improvements applied to the Goddard profiling algorithm (GPROF), particularly as they apply to the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM). Most of these improvements, however, are ...
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 ...
