Title
A Decadal Variability Of Semi-Global Precipitation By Trmm Pr
Abstract
Precipitation observation by the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission's (TRMM's) Precipitation Radar (PR) lasted for almost 17 years. Homogeneity of long-term PR data will be essential to study the water cycle change related to the interannual variability and the decadal change. In this study, we aim to develop a precipitation climate data from 17-year PR data. In this paper, PR data are adjusted to mitigate the discontinuity of the PR hardware (H/W) change. An obvious discontinuity of storm top height caused by the PR H/W change is mitigated creating the adjusted data. Semi-global (35S-35N) precipitation derived from the adjusted data is decreased by 0.98 % as compared with the original data.
