Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document for “Convective Rainfall Rate” (CRRPGE05v4.0)

Abstract

This document is the Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document (ATBD) for the MSG product PGE05 (CRR) of the SAFNWC/MSG software package. The Algorithm Theoretical Basis Document describes the physics of the problem together with the mathematical description of the algorithm. It also provides information on the product objectives, the needed input data and the output product.
