Discriminating raining from non-raining clouds at mid-latitudes using meteosat second generation daytime data
A new method for the delineation of precipitation during daytime using multispectral satellite data is proposed. The approach is not only applicable to the detection of mainly convective precipitation by means of the commonly used relation between infrared cloud top temperature and rainfall probabil...
