The following description is from the NOAA Climate Data Record CMORPH dataset page: This data set is for the bias-corrected, reprocessed CPC Morphing technique (CMORPH) high-resolution global satellite precipitation estimates. The CMORPH satellite precipitation estimates are created in two steps. First, the purely satellite-based global fields of precipitation are constructed through integrating Level 2 retrievals of instantaneous precipitation rates from all available passive microwave measurements aboard low earth orbiting platforms. Bias in these integrated satellite precipitation estimates is then removed through comparison against CPC daily gauge analysis over land and adjustment against the Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) merged analysis of pentad precipitation over ocean. The bias corrected CMORPH satellite precipitation estimates are created on an 8 km by 8 km grid over the global domain from 60 degrees S to 60 degrees N and in a 30-minute interval from January 1, 1998. Due to the delay of some input data sets, this formal version (Version 1) bias corrected CMORPH is produced manually once a month at a latency of 3-4 months. For the CDR production, the bias corrected CMORPH generated at its native resolution of 8 km by 8 km / 30-minute is upscaled to form THREE sets of data files of different time/space resolution for improved user experience: a) the full-resolution CMORPH data Output variable: precipitation rate in mm/hour spatial resolution: 8 km by 8km (at equator) spatial coverage: global (60S-60N) temporal resolution: 30min data period: January 1, 1998 to the present b) Hourly CMORPH Output variable: precipitation rate in mm/hour spatial resolution: 0.25 degrees latitude/longitude spatial coverage: global (60S-60N) temporal resolution: hourly data period: January 1, 1998 to the present c) Daily CMORPH Output variable: daily precipitation in mm/day spatial resolution: 0.25 degrees latitude/longitude spatial coverage: global (60S-60N) temporal resolution: hourly data period: January 1, 1998 to the present (b) and (c) are derived from and quantitatively consistent with the CMORPH at its original resolution (a). onGoing datahelp@ucar.edu pointOfContact daily dataset NetCDF4 dataset Resource Type 2021-03-30 revision 4.4 DataCite Metadata Working Group orginator resourceTypeGeneral DMSP 5D-2/F15 > Defense Meteorological Satellite Program-F15 DMSP 5D-3/F16 > Defense Meteorological Satellite Program-F16 NOAA-18 > National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-18 DMSP 5D-2/F13 > Defense Meteorological Satellite Program-F13 NOAA-16 > National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-16 NOAA-15 > National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-15 METOP-A > Meteorological Operational Satellite - A DMSP 5D-3/F18 > Defense Meteorological Satellite Program-F18 DMSP 5D-2/F14 > Defense Meteorological Satellite Program-F14 NOAA-17 > National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-17 NOAA-19 > National Oceanic & Atmospheric Administration-19 DMSP 5D-3/F17 > Defense Meteorological Satellite Program-F17 METOP-B > Meteorological Operational Satellite - B Aqua > Earth Observing System, Aqua FY-3B > FengYun-3B U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-03-19 revision 23.6 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Platforms TMI > TRMM Microwave Imager MWRI > MicroWave Radiation Imager AMSU-A > Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-A SSMIS > Special Sensor Microwave Imager/Sounder AMSU-B > Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit-B MHS > Microwave Humidity Sounder SSM/I > Special Sensor Microwave/Imager AMSR > Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-03-19 revision 23.6 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Instruments NOAA CLIMATE DATA RECORD (CDR) PROGRAM U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-03-19 revision 23.6 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Projects EARTH SCIENCE > ATMOSPHERE > PRECIPITATION > PRECIPITATION AMOUNT U.S. National Aeronautics and Space Administration Global Change Master Directory GCMD 2026-03-19 revision 23.6 NASA Global Change Master Directory orginator Valids List: Science and Services Keywords Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License None grid 0.25 0.073 eng utf-8 climatologyMeteorologyAtmosphere -180.0 180.0 -60.0 60.0 1998-01-01T0000+00 2025-10-31T2359+00 NSF NCAR Geoscience Data Exchange datahelp@ucar.edu https://gdex.ucar.edu distributor 447635.587 https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d502002/ https Dataset Description Related Link information https://gdex.ucar.edu/datasets/d502002/dataaccess/ https Data Access Related Link download none asNeeded
