Comparing Winds near Tropical Oceanic Precipitation Systems with and without Lightning
In order to examine how robust updraft strength and ice-based microphysical processes aloft in storms may affect convective outflows near the surface, ocean winds were compared between tropical maritime precipitation systems with and without lightning ...

Tropical Cyclone Center Fix Using CYGNSS Winds [PDF]
AbstractA new method is described for determining the center location of a tropical cyclone (TC) using wind speed measurements by the NASA Cyclone Global Navigation Satellite System (CYGNSS). CYGNSS measurements made during TC overpasses are used to constrain a parametric wind speed model in which storm center location is varied.

Desert Roughness Retrieval Using CYGNSS GNSS-R Data [PDF]
The aim of this study is to assess the potential use of data recorded by the Global Navigation Satellite System Reflectometry (GNSS-R) CYGNSS constellation to characterize desert surface roughness. The study is applied over the Sahara, the largest non-polar desert in the world. This is based on a spatio-temporal analysis of variations in Cyclone Global
