5th International GPM Ground Validation Workshop 2012
 |
The Fifth GPM International GV Workshop is being hosted by Environment Canada in coordination with NASA's Precipitation Measurement Missions Science Program. The workshop was held 10-12 July 2012 in Toronto, Canada. |
The anticipated outcomes of the workshop included: a) an improved understanding of high-latitude GV priorities and practices; b) assessment, definition, and prioritization of remaining key algorithm issues in the tropics; c) better understanding of the quality and utility of current satellite products, especially in the middle and high latitudes; d) increased coordination of international field and measurement initiatives contributing to GPM GV objectives; and e) a consensus on recommended approaches to making liquid and frozen PSD measurements and an improved understanding of how such information can be incorporated into GPM retrieval algorithms.
