Multiscale Observations of Hurricane Dennis (2005): The Effects of Hot Towers on Rapid Intensification
 Publisher: American Meteorological Society
 Abstract: A synthesis of remote sensing and in situ observations throughout the life cycle of Hurricane Dennis (2005) during the NASA Tropical Cloud Systems and Processes (TCSP) experiment is presented. Measurements from the ER-2 ...
Stratus and Fog Products Using GOES-8–9 3.9-μm Data
 Publisher: American Meteorological Society
 Abstract: Using data from the GOES-8?9 imager, this paper discusses the potential for consistent, around-the-clock image products that can trace the movement and evolution of low, stratiform clouds. In particular, the paper discusses ...
Exploiting Over-Land OceanSat-2 Scatterometer Observations to Capture Short-Period Time-Integrated Precipitation
 Publisher: American Meteorological Society
 Abstract: stimation of overland precipitation using observations from the radar and passive microwave radiometer sensors onboard the current Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) and predecessor Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission ...
Principal Components of Multifrequency Microwave Land Surface Emissivities. Part I: Estimation under Clear and Precipitating Conditions
 Publisher: American Meteorological Society
 Abstract: he upcoming Global Precipitation Measurement mission will provide considerably more overland observations over complex terrain, high-elevation river basins, and cold surfaces, necessitating an improved assessment of the ...
Improving Satellite-Based Subhourly Surface Rain Estimates Using Vertical Rain Profile Information
 Publisher: American Meteorological Society
 Abstract: AbstractQuantifying time-averaged rain rate, or rain accumulation, on subhourly time scales is essential for various application studies requiring rain estimates. This study proposes a novel idea to estimate subhourly ...
Satellite-Based Precipitation Estimation and Its Application for Streamflow Prediction over Mountainous Western U.S. Basins
 Publisher: American Meteorological Society
 Abstract: ecognizing the importance and challenges inherent to the remote sensing of precipitation in mountainous areas, this study investigates the performance of the commonly used satellite-based high-resolution precipitation ...
Principal Components of Multifrequency Microwave Land Surface Emissivities. Part II: Effects of Previous-Time Precipitation
 Publisher: American Meteorological Society
 Abstract: he microwave land surface emissivity (MLSE) over the continental United States was examined during 2011 as a function of prior rainfall conditions using two independent emissivity estimation techniques, one providing ...
Estimating 13.8-GHz Path-Integrated Attenuation from 10.7-GHz Brightness Temperatures for the TRMM Combined PR–TMI Precipitation Algorithm
 Publisher: American Meteorological Society
 Abstract: This study presents research in support of the design and implementation of a combined radar?radiometer algorithm to be used for precipitation retrieval during the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM). The combined ...
