Can Global Products Capture Precipitation Variability in the Galápagos Islands? An Assessment Based on Climatic Time‐Series Components

Meteorological Applications, Volume 32, Issue 4, July/August 2025.
We combined conventional validation and climatic time‐series component analysis to evaluate five global precipitation products in the Galápagos Islands. This integrated approach reveals not only overall accuracy but also how well each product captures seasonality, anomalies, and long‐term trends.

Global Evaluation of the Wettest Days Contributing to 50% of Annual Precipitation (WD50)

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 12, 28 June 2025.
Abstract Amid intensifying global warming, precipitation regimes become increasingly concentrated on the wettest days. Yet, there remains limited research at the global scale analyzing how half of the annual precipitation falls predominantly on these days.

Satellite‐Derived Productivity Outputs for Land Degradation Assessment Vary With Biome and Rainfall

Land Degradation &Development, Volume 36, Issue 9, Page 2913-2927, 30 May 2025.
ABSTRACT Estimates of the extent of land degradation vary dramatically. To quantify the extent and location of land degradation globally, the United Nations Convention to Combat Desertification (UNCCD) asks member countries to report on land degradation every four years, providing crucial baseline and change data.

Statistical assessment of IMERG-FRV6, MSWEP, TRMM-3B43V7, and PERSIANN-CDR satellite precipitation in monthly, seasonal, and annual time-scale over Iran

, 2023
Abstract Knowing the spatial and temporal distribution of precipitation around the world is beneficial for improving climate knowledge and enhancing weather and climate forecasting models. While determining the distribution of precipitation is complicated, many satellite precipitation products (SSPs) have been developed in the past few decades ...

Padrões de precipitação no Sul da Amazônia baseado no PERSIANN-CDR: Características e tendências

, 2017
Precipitation is a key climatic parameter for many anthropogenic activities, especially agriculture. Yet, its homogeneous and continuous monitoring remains challenging. That is particularly true for the Amazon region, which is sparsely inhabited and has a low density of ground-based rain gauge network.
