Performance evaluation of CMORPH satellite precipitation product in the Zambezi Basin
For evaluation of the Climate Prediction Center-MORPHing (CMORPH) satellite rainfall product in the Zambezi Basin, daily time series (1998–2013) of 60 rain gauge stations are used.

Abstract Cirrus clouds strongly influence Earth's radiation balance, yet their optical properties and formation pathways add uncertainty to climate models. Satellites offer a global view of cirrus but have key limitations: passive sensors struggle to detect thin layers, and active instruments in polar orbits miss the diurnal cycle. Long‐term records of

Daily rainfall statistics of TRMM and CMORPH: A case for trans-boundary Gandak River basin
Satellite precipitation products offer an opportunity to evaluate extreme events (flood and drought) for areas where rainfall data are not available or rain gauge stations are sparse. In this study, daily precipitation amount and frequency of TRMM 3B42V.7 and CMORPH products have been validated against daily rain gauge precipitation for the monsoon ...
