Assessment of satellite precipitation product estimates over Bali Island

A preliminary assessment of GPM-based multi-satellite precipitation estimates over a monsoon dominated region

Hydrological Assessment of Daily Satellite Precipitation Products over a Basin in Iran

In order to measure precipitation as the main variable for estimating the runoff and designing hydraulic structures, the satellite algorithm products that have the proper spatial and temporal coverage, can be used. In this study, at first, the daily streamflow simulation of Sarough-Cahy River from the Zarinehroud basin was conducted through the artificial neural network (ANN) and ground data of...

Probabilistic Precipitation Estimation with a Satellite Product

Satellite-based precipitation products have been shown to represent precipitation well over Nepal at monthly resolution, compared to ground-based stations. Here, we extend our analysis to the daily and subdaily timescales, which are relevant for mapping the hazards caused by storms as well as drought. We compared the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multi-satellite Precipitation Analy...

KRAJEWSKI Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, The University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa 52242-1585, USA Abstract The availability of satellite-derived rainfall products to hydrologists and other natural scientists has increased enormously in...

Error-Component Analysis of TRMM-Based Multi-Satellite Precipitation Estimates over Mainland China

The Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multi-Satellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA) products have been widely used, but their error and uncertainty characteristics over diverse climate regimes still need to be quantified. In this study, we focused on a systematic evaluation of TMPA’s error characteristics over mainland China, with an improved error-component analysis procedure. We perf...
