Evaluation of High-Resolution Precipitation Estimates from Satellites during July 2012 Beijing Flood Event Using Dense Rain Gauge Observations
Satellite-based precipitation estimates products, CMORPH and PERSIANN-CCS, were evaluated with a dense rain gauge network over Beijing and adjacent regions for an extremely heavy precipitation event on July 21 2012. CMORPH and PEERSIANN-CSS misplaced the region of greatest rainfall accumulation, and failed to capture the spatial pattern of precipitation, evidenced by a low spatial correlation c...
متن کاملUrban-Induced Mechanisms for an Extreme Rainfall Event in Beijing China: A Satellite Perspective
Using 1 km satellite remote sensing observations, this paper examines the clouds, aerosols, water vapor and surface skin temperature over Beijing to understand the possible urban system contributions to the extreme rainfall event on 21 July 2012 (i.e., 721 event). Remote sensing measurements, with the advantage of high spatial resolution and coverage, reveal three key urban-related mechanisms: ...
متن کاملEvaluation of TRMM 3B42 Precipitation Product Using Rain Gauge Data in Meichuan Watershed, Poyang Lake Basin, China
This study evaluated Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Multi-satellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA) product i.e. TRMM 3B42 data, using data from 52 rain gauge stations around the Meichuan watershed, which is a representative watershed of Poyang Lake basin in China. Both the latest Version 7 (V7) and previous Version 6 (V6) of TRMM 3B42 data were compared and evaluated for a 9-year per...
متن کاملScrutiny of TRMM Satellite Precipitation Data Efficiency for Evaluation of Rainfall Damages on Gilan’s Province Rice Farming
Rice is considered as one of the most strategic plants in Iran. The production of rice has been confronted with new challenges since the year of 2000, so the necessity of supporting policies implemented by all relevant authorities has been revealed more and more. Average rainfall records in Gilan province, a rice-favored tropical region, often show a range of 800 ml – 2000 ml with the latter nu...
متن کاملAccuracy evaluation of rainfall distribution of TRMM 43B3 satellite in the different climates of Iran
The lack of a reliable and extended system to monitor rainfall is one of the major challenges in analyzing, hydrological prediction and water resources management in Iran. Using satellite precipitation products in some parts of the country with lack or presence of low quality precipitation data, which can be used as alternative source for basins with sparse data in developing countries such as ...
