Responsibilities

Analysis of ROHP and COSMIC-2 data, in conjunction with other space-based microwave-based observations, both passive (e.g., GPM-GMI, ATMS) and active (e.g., GPM-DPR, CloudSat), to further their joint usage in understanding the thermodynamics underlying heavy precipitation.

Examination of the level of increased moistening that occurs within the boundary layer through the lower free troposphere within precipitation, and the vertical layers where the moisture is most sensitive to the precipitation structure.

Assessment of the water vapor-precipitation convective transition process unique to each model in the suite of recent climate model intercomparison projects such as CMIP6.

Numerical weather prediction (NWP) forecast model verification and assessment, RO data assimilation including PRO, and RO-related OSSE experiments.
