False-Color Display of Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Displays of multi-frequency passive microwave data from the Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) flying on the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program (DMSP) spacecraft are presented. Observed brightness temperatures ...
Regional Rainfall Climatologies Derived from Special Sensor Microwave Imager (SSM/I) Data
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Climatologies of convective precipitation were derived from passive microwave observations from the Special Sensor Microwave Imager using a scattering-based algorithm of Adler et al. Data were aggregated over periods of ...
NASA’s Remotely-sensed Precipitation: A Reservoir for Applications Users
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: recipitation is the fundamental source of freshwater in the water cycle. It is critical for everyone, from subsistence farmers in Africa to weather forecasters around the world, to know when, where and how much rain and ...
A Proposed Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Satellite
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) satellite is planned for an operational duration of at least three years, beginning in the mid-1990's. The main scientific goals for it are to determine the distribution and ...
MSWEP V2 Global 3-Hourly 0.1° Precipitation: Methodology and Quantitative Assessment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractWe present Multi-Source Weighted-Ensemble Precipitation, version 2 (MSWEP V2), a gridded precipitation P dataset spanning 1979?2017. MSWEP V2 is unique in several aspects: i) full global coverage (all land and ...
The Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) Combined Precipitation Dataset
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) has released the GPCP Version 1 Combined Precipitation Data Set, a global, monthly precipitation dataset covering the period July 1987 through December 1995. The primary ...
Intercomparison of Global Precipitation Products: The Third Precipitation Intercomparison Project (PIP–3)
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A set of global, monthly rainfall products has been intercompared to understand the quality and utility of the estimates. The products include 25 observational (satellite based), four model, and two climatological products. ...
