Space-Based Precipitation Observations: Innovations for Science and Applications

Session ID#: 160822

Session Description:
Precipitation processes condition the Earth’s water cycle, weather, and climate, and are key to habitability around the world. Global precipitation observations have been vital for documenting processes that impact extreme weather, hydrologic forecasts, and infrastructure, with the TRMM and GPM missions setting standards for global precipitation science and applications. New and future missions such as AOS, EPS-SG, GOSAT-GW, INCUS, TEMPEST, TROPICS, and WSF-M will continue to improve our observational record and our understanding and modeling of physical processes. Precipitation science will advance by using complementary observations from spaceborne and suborbital platforms to document detailed interaction processes, small spatial scales, poorly resolved short temporal components, and through model-observation synergy that jointly enhances model accuracy and scientists’ insight into observations. This session invites innovative contributions in all areas of precipitation science with emphasis on the use of space-based observations, including missions, instrumentation, algorithms, products, validation, extremes, physical processes, models, and applications.
