Determination of 3D Cloud Ice Water Contents by Combining Multiple Data Sources from Satellite, Ground Radar, and a Numerical Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study aims at determining the three-dimensional distribution of ice water content over a broad area near the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement Program Southern Great Plains site, where cloud radar and meteorological ...
Impact of Cloud Model Microphysics on Passive Microwave Retrievals of Cloud Properties. Part II: Uncertainty in Rain, Hydrometeor Structure, and Latent Heating Retrievals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The impact of model microphysics on the retrieval of cloud properties based on passive microwave observations was examined using a three-dimensional, nonhydrostatic, adaptive-grid cloud model to simulate a mesoscale ...
Regional Variability within Global-Scale Relations between Passive Microwave Signatures and Raining Clouds over the Tropical Oceans
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: mpirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis of radiance vectors associated with emission and scattering indices for the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) has been performed to examine the ...

Long-Term Comparison of Collocated Instantaneous Rain Retrievals from the TRMM Microwave Imager and Precipitation Radar over the Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ersion-7 (V7) rain rates retrieved by the TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI) and Precipitation Radar (PR) are spatially and temporally collocated over the ocean and compared at TMI footprint scale for the summer months of 16 ...
Rain-Rate Characteristics over the Korean Peninsula and Improvement of the Goddard Profiling (GPROF) Database for TMI Rainfall Retrievals
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ummer rainfall characteristics over the Korean Peninsula are examined using six years of Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Microwave Imager (TMI) measurements and surface rain measurements from the densely populated ...
The Varying Response of Microwave Signatures to Different Types of Overland Rainfall Found over the Korean Peninsula
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) precipitation radar and ground rain measurements were used to investigate the performance of the TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI) land algorithm. In particular, data from a dense ...
An Eye on the Storm: Integrating a Wealth of Data for Quickly Advancing the Physical Understanding and Forecasting of Tropical Cyclones
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The JPL Tropical Cyclone Information System integrates observations with model forecasts, allowing interrogation of a large number of variables, to help better understand the multi-scale non-linear interactions that lead ...
