Proto-flight test of the Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar for the Global Precipitation Measurement

2011 IEEE International Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2011
The Dual-frequency Precipitation Radar (DPR) installed on the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) core satellite is being developed by JAXA and NICT. This paper describes objectives, technical performance, resource allocation, preliminary design, development model test, critical design and proto-flight test (PFT) of the DPR instrument.

Global precipitation measurements for validating climate models

Atmospheric Research, 2017
The advent of global precipitation data sets with increasing temporal span has made it possible to use them for validating climate models. In order to fulfill the requirement of global coverage, existing products integrate satellite-derived retrievals from many sensors with direct ground observations (gauges, disdrometers, radars), which are used as ...

Operational Applications of Global Precipitation Measurement Observations

2020
The NASA Global Precipitation Measurement Mission core satellite was launched in 2014, and the data observations provided by this mission are freely available to scientists around the globe in near real time. As part of the Early Adopter program, NASA’s Short-term Prediction Research and Transition (SPoRT) center has worked to provide these data to ...

Precipitation Measurement and the Advancement Toward Global Observations

Geography Compass, 2010
Abstract Precipitation is an important variable in the global hydrologic cycle that helps to sustain life, influences a variety of daily activities, and plays a critical role in the Earth’s energy balance. Our understanding of precipitation, especially in forecast applications, hazards mitigation, and water resources are among the ...
