GPI Study Areas

• Four years of monthly-mean GPI Tb histogram data and Wentz/Spencer SSM/I rainfall were analyzed.

• Correlations using GPI / SSMI pairs at 2.5 deg res within five study areas were examined.

• Results were repeated with TOVS layer-mean cloud fractions in lieu of GPI to understand thin (non-black) cirrus effects.

How Does GPI Cold Cloudiness Relate to SSM/I rainfall?
