CHG rainfall products Make best possible rainfall products for monitoring crop stress in areas of rain fed agriculture. Improved Results: Objectives: CHIRP/FTIP blended with station data, 1 pentad lag Results: CHIRP ( present) and FTIP ( present) Global unbiased 0.05 degree pentads available with 2 day lag tinyurl.com/chg-products

Quick overview of how we get there… Start with long term monthly average rainfall maps FCLIM Aside: build monthly models of rainfall trained on TRMM-V7 –derive coefficients a and b, such that rain rate = a * CCD + b (IRP) –where CCD is the percentage of observation where IR temp < threshold Calculate IRP pentads from CPC IR data ( present) and B1 IR data ( ) CHIRP (1981-present) = FCLIM * (IRP %normal) Use TRMM-RT7 data ( present) FTIP (2000-present) = FCLIM * (IRP %normal + TRMM-RT7 %normal)/2 SPACE TIME

CHG Station Climate Database Daily rainfall observations from many public and private sources going back to the 1800’s Currently ~950,000 records in db Used to create spatially interpolated fields Challenge identifying duplicates, non-zero zeroes Constantly topping off db from available sources Blended into satellite rainfall products

Summary 2 rainfall products, CHIRP (1981-present) & FTIP (2000-present) Global, 0.05 º, unbiased, pentads with 2 day lag. Compare very well with existing rainfall products. Developing an extensive station rainfall database Used to blend station data with CHIRP and FTIP
