Session 15B Precipitation Processes and Observations for Atmospheric, Land Surface, and Hydrological Modeling - III

Thursday, 16 January 2020: 3:30 PM-5:00 PM
Host: 34th Conference on Hydrology
Chair:
Andrew Newman, NCAR, RAL/HAP, Boulder, CO
Cochairs:
Haonan Chen, Colorado State Univ. and NOAA/Earth System Research Laboratory, Fort Collins, CO; Viviana Maggioni, George Mason University, Sid and Reva Dewberry Dept. of Civil, Environmental & Infrastructure Engineering, Fairfax, VA and Youcun Qi, Institute of Geographic Sciences and Natural Resources Research, Beijing

The precipitation session focuses on precipitation observation, modeling, estimation, and applications of in-situ and remotely sensed precipitation products. Topics include, but are not limited to (1) precipitation processes and modeling; (2) advances in remote sensing of precipitation from satellite, airborne, and ground-based platforms; (3) recent development pertaining to fusion and downscaling of precipitation products; (4) assimilation of precipitation and precipitation-related variables in weather or water models; (5) impact of uncertainties associated with precipitation observations on hydrologic design and modeling, (6) assessment of precipitation variability, including extremes, across scales.
