Successes with the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission [PDF]
2016 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium (IGARSS), 2016 Water is essential to our planet Earth. Knowing when, where and how precipitation falls is crucial for understanding the linkages between the Earth's water and energy cycles and is extraordinarily important for sustaining life on our planet during climate change.

Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM): Unified Precipitation Estimation from Space [PDF]
, 2018 Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) is an international satellite mission that uses measurements from an advanced radar/radiometer system on a Core Observatory as reference standards to unify and advance precipitation estimates through a constellation of research and operational microwave sensors. GPM is a science mission focusing on a key component

The Global Precipitation Measurement Mission [PDF]
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 2014 Precipitation affects many aspects of our everyday life. It is the primary source of freshwater and has significant socioeconomic impacts resulting from natural hazards such as hurricanes, floods, droughts, and landslides. Fundamentally, precipitation is a critical component of the global water and energy cycle that governs the weather, climate, and ...
