GPM GROUND VALIDATION ENVIRONMENT CANADA (EC) MANUAL PRECIPITATION MEASUREMENTS GCPEX

The GPM Ground Validation Environment Canada (EC) Manual Precipitation Measurements GCPEx dataset was collected during the GPM Cold-season Precipitation Experiment (GCPEx) in Ontario, Canada with data collections from January 18 - March 28, 2012. GCPEx addressed shortcomings in the GPM snowfall retrieval algorithm by collecting microphysical properties, associated remote sensing observations, and coordinated model simulations of precipitating snow. Precipitation amount, weight, snow water equivalent and present weather condition were recorded using a Tretyakov gauge inside a double fence intercomparison reference (DFIR) shield.

加拿大环境部（EC）GPM地面验证手册中记录了GPM冷季降水实验（GCPEx）期间在加拿大安大略省收集的GCPEx地面降水量测数据集。该实验于2012年1月18日至3月28日进行，旨在解决GPM降雪检索算法的不足，通过收集微物理性质、相关遥感观测数据和协调的降雪模型模拟。使用位于双围栏互比较参考（DFIR）屏蔽内的特列亚科夫量雨计记录降水量、重量、雪水当量和当时天气状况。
