In this study, Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) 3B42 v7 satellite based rainfall data are verified by using cumulative monthly rainfall data measured at 257 stations operated by the General Directorate of Meteorology between 1998 and 2014. Long-term mean values of station-based and satellite-based rainfall data, correlation between them, Standard deviation of monthly average and anomaly components, and standard deviation of satellite based data error are analyzed. Variation of satellite-based data error with elevation and distance from coasts is the major focus of this study. The results show that, especially the anomaly component of satellite-based rainfall data error is much higher at low-elevation regions and coastal regions compared with high-elevation regions and interior regions.

Evaluating and merging model- and satellite-based precipitation products over varying climate and topography
Amjad, Muhamma; Yılmaz, Mustafa Tuğrul; Department of Civil Engineering (2020)
Before using the satellite- and model-based precipitation retrievals in hydrological studies, their uncertainty assessment is crucial. Improving their performance accuracy is another important issue worth consideration. This study first evaluates and intercompares a set of nine precipitation products (2 satellite estimation-based, 2 model reanalysis-based, and 5 model forecast-based products) over varying climate and topography by using the in-situ observed precipitation data as truth. The products were the...
Evaluating the hydro-estimator satellite rainfall algorithm over a mountainous region
Yücel, İsmail; Gochis, David J. (2011-01-01)
This study investigates the performance of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration/National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NOAA/NESDIS) operational rainfall estimation algorithm, called the hydro-estimator (HE), with and without its orographic correction method, in its depiction of the timing, intensity and duration of convective rainfall in general, and of the topography-rainfall relationship in particular. An event-based rainfall observation network in north-west Mexic...
Improving remotely - sensed precipitation estimates over mountainous regions
Akçelik, Mustafa; Yücel, İsmail; Department of Civil Engineering (2013)
In support of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) National Weather Service’s (NWS) flash flood warning and heavy precipitation forecast efforts, the NOAA National Environmental Satellite Data and Information Service (NESDIS) Center for Satellite Applications and Research (STAR) has been providing satellite based precipitation estimates operationally since 1978. Two of the satellite based rainfall algorithms are the Hydro-Estimator (HE) and the Self-Calibrating Multivariate Precipitati...
Analyses of atmospheric and marine observations along the Turkish coast
Tutsak, Ersin; Özsoy, Emin; Department of Physical Oceanography (2012)
Time series and spectral analyses are applied to meteorological data (wind velocity, air temperature, barometric pressure) and sea level measurements from a total of 13 monitoring stations along the Turkish Coast. Analyses of four-year time series identify main time scales of transport and motion while establishing seasonal characteristics, i.e. distinguishing, for instance, between winter storms and summer sea-breeze system. Marine flow data acquired by acoustic doppler current pro filers (ADCP) is also a...
Evaluation of a satellite-based global flood monitoring system
Yılmaz, Koray Kamil; Tian, Yudong; Hong, Yang; Pierce, Harold F. (2010-01-01)
This study provides an initial evaluation of a global flood monitoring system (GFMS) using satellite-based precipitation and readily available geospatial datasets. The GFMS developed by our group uses a relatively simple hydrologic model, based on the run-off curve number method, to transform precipitation into run-off. A grid-to-grid routing scheme moves run-off downstream. Precipitation estimates are from the TRMM Multi-satellite Precipitation Analysis (TMPA). We first evaluated the TMPA algorithm using a...
