Upgrades, Early Results, and Status for V07 IMERG

- TMPA ended with December 2019 - the products are still available, but users are encouraged to move to IMERG - The GPM Version 07 release has been happening later than originally planned and (as usual) in stages - 1 December 2021: Combined had to shift to ”hybrid”: V07 Radar, but still running V06 algorithm - 1 December 2021: IMERG had to shift to “hybrid” Combined for Early, Late, but still running V06 algorithm; we chose to not use ”hybrid” for Final, so it stops with September 2021 - 1 May 2022: IMERG Early, Late Runs shift to V07 GPROF and Combined, but still running V06 algorithm - 1 February 2023: Expected start of V07 IMERG Final processing - 15 March 2023: Expected start of V07 IMERG Early, Late processing

Oceanic Validation of IMERG Version 7 with the GPM Validation Network

- To validate Version 7 of the Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission (IMERG) over tropical and high-latitude oceans using the GPM Validation Network (VN). - To trace errors from the Level-3 IMERG V07 product back through to the input Level-2 Goddard Profiling Algorithm (GPROF) V07 product for the GPM Microwave Imager (GMI).

Integrated Multi-Satellite Retrievals for GPM (IMERG)

The Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG) product from the U.S. Science Team of the NASA-JAXA Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission provides global satellite precipitation estimates for a wide range of scientific research and societal applications. By adopting a constellation approach using low-Earth orbit passive microwave and geosynchronous-orbit infrared observations from domestic and international partners, IMERG is able to achieve a high resolution of 0.1° every half-hour globally, with three Runs to cater to applications with different latency requirements. With the completion of the reprocessing of the latest version, IMERG V07 now provides improved global satellite precipitation estimates for a period of more than 20 years. This presentation summarizes background on retrievals, the IMERG algorithm, and access to the data. As well, it showcases select results from the data, which might give participants ideas about how they can analyze the data themselves. The presentation ends with a prospectus for the timeline for the upcoming Version 08 and provides a list of references.
