Status of satellite precipitation retrievals [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2010 Abstract. Satellites offer an unrivalled vantage point to observe and measure Earth system processes and parameters. Precipitation (rain and snow) in particular, benefit from such observations since precipitation is spatially and temporally highly variable and overcomes some of the deficiencies of conventional gauge and radar measurements.

Links between satellite retrieved aerosol and precipitation [PDF]
Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2014 Abstract. Many theories have been proposed detailing how aerosols might impact precipitation, predicting both increases and decreases depending on the prevailing meteorological conditions and aerosol type. In convective clouds, increased aerosol concentrations have been speculated to invigorate convective activity.
