New data set release: MEaSUREs Precipitation Phase and Rate from Passive Microwave Observations and Earth System Models using Transfer Learning, Version 1

MEaSUREs Precipitation Phase and Rate from Passive Microwave Observations and Earth System Models using Transfer Learning, Version 1 is now available at the NASA National Snow and Ice Data Center Distributed Active Archive Center (NSIDC DAAC). This data set contains estimates of precipitation phase (rain, snow, or clear) and total precipitation rate at approximately 5.1 km × 13.2 km resolution along the GPM Microwave Imager (GMI) S1 swath for the time period 7 April 2014 to 6 May 2025. The data are generated using GMI brightness temperatures (Tbs) and the TLP-R2S framework, a supervised machine learning algorithm that retrieves precipitation phase and rate by transferring prior information from reanalysis data to satellite passive microwave observations. This data set is part of the Making Earth System Data Records for Use in Research Environments (MEaSUREs) Program.
