چکیده
Highlights of the 6th International GEWEX Science Conference and Joint GEWEX/iLEAPS Sessions Melbourne, Australia, 24–28 August 2009 See page 11 Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) Version 2.1 precipitation climatology, 1979–2008, in mm/day. This combination of satellite estimates based on infrared, microwave, and sounding data, together with gauge analyses, yields a global average of 2.68 mm/day.

A near real-time satellite-based global drought climate data record
Reliable drought monitoring requires long-term and continuous precipitation data. High resolution satellite measurements provide valuable precipitation information on a quasi-global scale. However, their short lengths of records limit their applications in drought monitoring. In addition to this limitation, long-term low resolution satellite-based gauge-adjusted data sets such as the Global Pre...

As a result of climate change and reduction in rainfall during the last decade, drought has become big problem in the world, especially in arid and semi-arid areas such as Iran. Therefore drought monitoring and management is great of important. In contrast with the traditional methods which are based on the ground stations measurements and meteorological drought monitoring, using the remote sen...

متن کاملImpact of AVHRR Channel 3b Noise on Climate Data Records: Filtering Method Applied to the CM SAF CLARA-A2 Data Record
A method for reducing the impact of noise in the 3.7 micron spectral channel in climate data records derived from coarse resolution (4 km) global measurements from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) data is presented. A dynamic size-varying median filter is applied to measurements guided by measured noise levels and scene temperatures for individual AVHRR sensors on historic N...
متن کاملCo-variation of temperature and precipitation in CMIP5 models and satellite observations
[1] Current variability of precipitation (P) and its response to surface temperature (T) are analysed using coupled (CMIP5) and atmosphere-only (AMIP5) climate model simulations and compared with observational estimates. There is striking agreement between Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) observed and AMIP5 simulated P anomalies over land both globally and in the tropics suggesti...
