• WHERE ARE THE MOST INTENSE THUNDERSTORMS ON EARTH (2006, methodology): “While the attenuation correction algorithms developed for TRMM are highly refined (Iguchi et al. 2000; Meneghini et al. 2000) and are deemed adequate for rain estimation in most cases, they were never intended to apply to storms with 40-dBZ echoes through such a deep layer.”
• Global Precipitation Map Using Satellite-Borne Microwave Radiometers by the GSMaP Project: Production and Validation (2006, unknown): “ing area [68], [69].”
• Comparison of Rainfall Products Derived from TRMM Microwave Imager and Precipitation Radar (2002, methodology): “In the surface reference technique, the path-integrated attenuation (PIA) is estimated by comparing the surface echoes in the precipitating area with those in a rain-free area (Meneghini et al. 2000).”
