A Combined IR-GPS Satellite Analysis for Potential Applications in Detecting and Predicting Lightning Activity

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Continuous estimates of the vertical integrated precipitable water vapor content from the tropospheric delay of the signal received by the antennas of the global positioning system (GPS) are used in this paper, in conjunction with the measurements of the

Characteristics of Precipitable Water Vapor and Liquid Water Path by Microwave Radiometer [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Korean earth science society, 2012
Based on the observation of the microwave radiometers at Cheongju, Hapcheon and Daegwallyeong in Korea, the precipitable water vapor and liquid water path have been analyzed for spatio-temporal characteristics. The observed datas have been validated by comparing precipitable water vapor between the microwave radiometer and the radiosonde near the sites.

Water Vapor Protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The purpose of this activity is to measure the total precipitable water vapor (column water vapor) in the atmosphere above an observer's site. Students point a GLOBE/GIFTS water vapor instrument at the sun and record the voltage readings from a digital ...

Measurement of atmospheric precipitable water using a solar radiometer [PDF]

open access: yes
A technique is described and tested that allows the determination of atmospheric precipitable water from two measurements of solar intensity: one in a water-vapor absorption band and another in a nearby spectral region unaffected by water ...

Satellite-observed precipitation and total column water vapor

open access: yesFrontiers in Environmental Science
This study explores the relationship between water vapor and rainfall intensities over three tropical lands (Amazon Basin, Sahel, southern South America) and three tropical ocean regions (Atlantic Ocean, Indian Ocean, Niño 4). We utilized daily total column water vapor (TCWV) data from the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) and daily precipitation ...

The relationship between raining and GPS – precipitable water vapor

open access: yesJournal of Physics: Conference Series, 2019
AbstractPrecipitable water vapor (PWV) can be retrieved from the delayed of the propagating GPS signal through the wet atmosphere. In the experiment, the GPS data in 2009 from the permanent GPS station name of CUSV were used to estimate the amount of integrated vertical water vapor above the GPS station in term of PWV.

Effect of atmospheric parameters on silicon cell performance [PDF]

open access: yes
The effects of changing atmospheric parameters on the performance of a typical silicon solar cell were calculated. The precipitable water vapor content, airmass and turbidity were varied over wide ranges and the normal terrestrial distribution of ...
