Assessing satellite-based precipitation estimates in the Southern Appalachian mountains using rain gauges and TRMM PR
A study was performed using the first full year of rain gauge records from a newly deployed network in the Southern Appalachian mountains. This is a region characterized by complex topography with orographic rainfall enhancement up to 300% over small distances (<8 km). Rain gauge observations were used to assess precipitation estimates from the Precipitation Radar (PR) on board of the TRMM sate...
متن کاملThe Frequency of Extreme Rain Events in Satellite Rain-Rate Estimates and an Atmospheric General Circulation Model
The frequency distributions of surface rain rate are evaluated in the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) and Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) satellite observations and the NOAA/GFDL global atmosphere model version 2 (AM2). Instantaneous satellite rain-rate observations averaged over the 2.5° latitude 2° longitude model grid are shown to be representative of the half-hour rain ra...
متن کاملIntercomparison of Rain Gauge, Radar, and Satellite-Based Precipitation Estimates with Emphasis on Hydrologic Forecasting
This study compares mean areal precipitation (MAP) estimates derived from three sources: an operational rain gauge network (MAPG), a radar/gauge multisensor product (MAPX), and the Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Networks (PERSIANN) satellitebased system (MAPS) for the time period from March 2000 to November 2003. The study area includes seven o...
متن کاملRain Attenuation Prediction at Ku Band Using Satellite Signal Beacon Measurement in Iran
In this paper satellite wave propagation at Ku and Ka band is considered. The design and simulation of a typical satellite beacon receiver at Ka band is designed and simulated for the future works. Also rain attenuation prediction at Ku band using satellite signal beacon measurement and simulations for Iran Telecommunication Research Center (ITRC) are presented. The measurement setup consists o...
متن کاملRain structure transfer using an exemplar rain image for synthetic rain image generation
This letter proposes a simple method of transferring rain structures of a given exemplar image (rain image) into a target image (non‐rain image). Given the exemplar rain image and its corresponding masked rain image, rain patches including real‐life rain structures are extracted randomly, and then residual rain patches are obtained by subtracting those rain patches from their mean patches. Next...
