Precipitation Rate at Ground by MW Cross-track Scanners (with indication of phase) - Multimission
Description
Instantaneous precipitation maps generated from passive MW images taken by cross-track scanners on operational satellites in sun-synchronous orbits processed soon after each satellite pass. Before undertaking retrieval the AMSU-A resolution is enhanced by blending with AMSU-B/MHS. The retrieval algorithm is based on a neural network trained by means of a pre-computed cloud-radiation database built from meteorological situations simulated by a cloud resolving model followed by a radiative transfer model.
Metop-A data are available in the Data Centre up to 15/11/2021.
