Verification of a Synthetic Rainfall Model Based on the ArRR and Satellite Rainfall
Journal of Hunan University Natural Sciences, 2022Synthetic rainfall is needed as an input in the analysis of design flood. This research intends to conduct the verification of a synthetic rainfall model based on the ArRR and satellite result. The rainfall data is as the main component in obtaining the design, detail design, operation and maintenance of effective water resource infrastructure ...

Estimating actual rainfall from satellite rainfall products
Atmospheric Research, 2009Abstract The lack of uncertainty measures in operational satellite rainfall (SR) products leads to a situation where users of the SR products know that there are significant errors in the products, but they have no quantitative information about the distribution of these errors.

Satellite rainfall monitoring: An overview
Remote Sensing Reviews, 1994Abstract The rarity of rainfall, and its broad and varied significance, are affirmed, followed by a review of the problems of rainfall measurement and monitoring. The general state of knowledge of the global rainfall distribution is then discussed. Satellite methods for improving this knowledge are introduced by reference to the available satellites ...

Rainfall measurements using satellite downlink attenuation
2014 IEEE Geoscience and Remote Sensing Symposium, 2014The attenuation of a commercial satellite link signal at Ku-band is used for estimating rainfall rate along the link path. Comparisons with rainfall accumulations obtained using simultaneous radar measurements along the same path show good agreement.

Rainfall-runoff simulation using satellite rainfall in a scarce data catchment
Journal of Applied Water Engineering and Research, 2021This study investigates the performance of TRMM and PERSIANN satellite rainfall data as input in a reliable rainfall-runoff model in order to provide information to the flood early warning for the ...

Review of Satellite Rainfall Estimation Methods
Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society, 1973This paper grew out of two ad hoc conferences held last year to discuss the problem of estimating precipitation from satellite data. Although developments in an area as new as this are rapid, there was sufficient interest in the problem, progress towards a solution, and ignorance of the work of others to warrant drawing the conference summaries ...

Neural Network tools for Satellite Rainfall Estimation
2007This paper shows some examples of how Neural Networks (NNs) have been used for satellite rainfall estimation (SRE). We start with a simple case that illustrates how NNs can be used, presenting a simulation of the well-known auto-estimator procedure. Secondly, we present an overview of a direct approach for sensor fusion using NNs.

Satellite rainfall climatology: a review
International Journal of Climatology, 2001AbstractThe monitoring of the world's climate using conventional means is well established, incorporating numerous historical data sets to ensure a long‐term record. Parameters such as temperature have been quite accurately recorded over the last 200 years or so, but other parameters such as rainfall are less well recorded.

Satellite Precipitation Measurement and Extreme Rainfall
2020Extreme Rainfall can be defined by percentiles of the overall rainfall distribution at a given temporal scale. Generally, the 90th percentile value and above can be considered extreme. While satellite measurements of rainfall provide estimates at global scales and for ever increasing spatial resolution (currently 0.1 km2), the many flavors of satellite

Satellite Remote Sensing of Rainfall
1989Rainfall is of general significance to agrometeorology, not least in the monitoring of crop performance, and for crop (harvest) prediction. Unfortunately it is particularly difficult to monitor satisfactorily by conventional (rainguage) means. This paper summarises the many techniques which have been devised for satellite-assisted monitoring of ...
