DOI: 10.1109/lgrs.2022.3196386
Abstract: Previous studies used the temperature-related variables from model outputs (e.g., 2-m temperature) for precipitation phase determination (i.e., rain–snow separation). This study presents a new idea for precipitation phase determination using brightness temperatures (TBs) from Advanced… read more here.
