Observation of Atmospheric Water Vapors Using AIRS [PDF]
The Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) aboard the Aqua satellite, which is one of the Earth Observing System satellites managed by National Aeronautics and Space Administration, provides global measurements of the water vapor in the atmosphere using ...

Predicting GPS-based PWV Measurements Using Exponential Smoothing [PDF]
Global Positioning System (GPS) derived precipitable water vapor (PWV) is extensively being used in atmospheric remote sensing for applications like rainfall prediction. Many applications require PWV values with good resolution and without any missing values.

An Empirical Grid Model for Precipitable Water Vapor
Atmospheric precipitable water vapor (PWV) is a key variable for weather forecast and climate research. Various techniques (e.g., radiosondes, global navigation satellite system, satellite remote sensing and reanalysis products by data assimilation) can ...

Effect of obstructive sleep apnea on the response to hypertension therapy
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) often precedes cardiovascular disease, partly due to treatment resistant hypertension. The nocturnal apneas of OSA trigger increased sympathetic nervous discharge during both sleep and wakefulness.

GPS-Derived PWV for Rainfall Nowcasting in Tropical Region
In this paper, a simple algorithm is proposed to perform the nowcasting of rainfall in the tropical region. The algorithm applies global positioning system-derived precipitable water vapor (PWV) values and its second derivative for the short-term prediction of rainfall.

GPS-PWV jumps before intense rain events [PDF]
Abstract. A rapid increase in atmospheric water vapor is a fundamental ingredient for many intense rainfall events. High-frequency precipitable water vapor (PWV) estimates from a Global Positioning System meteorological site (GPS) are evaluated here for intense rainfall events during the CHUVA Vale field campaign in Brazil (November–December 2011), in ...
