This paper reports the experimentation of a joint use of ground-based radars and satellite radiometer in order to obtain more information at diverse spatial and temporal scales to improve quantitative measurement of rainfall over the centre of Italy. In particular the utilisation of radar vertical profile measurements to validate and calibrate passive microwave data is outlined.

Abstract

This paper reports the experimentation of a joint use of ground-based radars and satellite radiometer in order to obtain more information at diverse spatial and temporal scales to improve quantitative measurement of rainfall over the centre of Italy. In particular the utilisation of radar vertical profile measurements to validate and calibrate passive microwave data is outlined. Experimentation has been conducted on a data set made up of Montagnana multiparameter C-band and DMSP-SSM/I data
