APAN 2003 Fukuoka, Natural Resource (EM)- 4 Precipitation Observation from Space in the Next Generation: Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Tomomi Nio – NASDA/EORC  Rainfall measurement: for food production, floods, droughts, climate models, etc.  TRMM’s Achievements:  Accurate observation of rain distribution in tropical and sub-tropical regions  Diurnal, annual, and long-term variations of precipitation  3-dimensional rain structure (PR)  Accurate rain observation over ocean and land in equal quality (PR)  Improvement in weather forecasting with 4-D data assimilation  Sea Surface Temperature (SST) estimation under clouds  Estimation of soil moisture (PR)  Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) Objectives  Improve ongoing efforts to predict climate.  Improve the accuracy of weather and precipitation forecasts.  Provide more frequent and complete sampling of the Earth's precipitation.  Observation by a fleet of satellites with microwave radiometers, provides 3 hr. global coverage.  Key for quick data distribution – reduce data processing and data transmission time delay.  International WG for data exchange: GDaWG – discuss content, metadata, networks, data exchange mechanisms, etc.  GPM key point is data distribution  High performance networks - for fast collection and distribution  Easy utilization - standardize handling of data

APAN 2003 Fukuoka, Natural Resource (EM)- 5 Remote Sensing in Hydrology and Flood Hazard Monitoring Dr. Yasuto Tachikawa - Disaster Prevention Research Institute, Kyoto University  Roles of Remote Sensing in Hydrology and Water Resources Engineering:  Flood Hazard Monitoring  Observation of hydrological variables and water resources  Hydrology and Water Resources Prediction  Observation of landslides with Landsat-7/ETM +, Terra/ASTER, and IKONOS images  Hydrologic Observation  Dam reservoir water storage estimation  Precipitation  Surface temperature  Surface soil moisture  Hydrologic Prediction  Hydrologic Model Development  Atmospheric Forcing (Model Input)  Initial Conditions and Assimilation  What can we expect for future remote sensing?  Flood Disaster Monitoring - enhance both time and spatial resolutions  Hydrologic and Hydraulic Model Development – more precise Digital Elevation Models  Observation of Hydrologic Variables and Developing Forcing Data – precipitation, evapotranspiration, radiation, temperature, discharge, soil moisture and surface temperature

APAN 2003 Fukuoka, Natural Resource (EM)- 6 Using Space Technology for Flood Disaster Mitigation in Thailand Dr. Pakorn Apaphant - GISTDA  Flood Monitoring and Damage Estimation  Disaster observation from space - floods, forest fires, earthquakes and other natural disasters  Passive and active sensors  Flood observation plans – time series of rise and fall of water  Integration of water level measured at various stations for flood study  Potential application of very high resolution satellite data - high and very high resolution data are valuable for producing and updating maps to provide accurate information on natural disasters (IKONOS and SPOT 5).  3-D imagery can be generated to simulate actual terrain features  Conclusions  Remote Sensing technology provides an efficient and timely information for disaster monitoring and complements the conventional methods for damage assessment and mapping.  Remote Sensing and GIS applied with mathematical models ensure more accurate prediction for flood disasters.

APAN 2003 Fukuoka, Natural Resource (EM)- 7 Passive Microwave Rain Rate Remote Sensing Dr. Chris Elvidge - NOAA-NESDIS National Geophysical Data Center  Advantages of microwave remote sensing from space  Penetration through non-precipitating clouds.  Highly stable instrument calibration.  Radiance is linearly related to temperature (i.e. the retrieval is nearly linear).  O 2 is uniformly mixed gas throughout the atmosphere.  Disadvantages of microwave remote sensing from space  Larger fields of view (10-50 km) compared to vis/IR.  Variable emissivity over land.  Polar orbiting satellites provide discontinuous temporal coverage.  Why do We Need Observations in Lower Troposphere? The planetary boundary layer contains the seeds for weather.  Conclusions  Passive microwave remote sensing has a unique capability to detect rain and estimate rain rates from orbit.  This complements ground based weather radar and precipitation measurements.  Algorithms work over water, may extend to land with more advanced sensors.  Satellite data from multiple systems can be used to get greater integration time, provide a more complete depiction of rain rate through the day and prediction of severe rain events.

APAN 2003 Fukuoka, Natural Resource (EM)- 8 Technology for Hydrologic Data Acquisition and Monitoring Dr. Jongkook Lee - DataPCS, Korea  Goals  Wireless realtime hydrologic monitoring technology development for researchers  Realtime hydrologic watershed monitoring  Realtime disaster prevention monitoring  Realtime SOC monitoring and control  Coastal / river / natural environment monitoring  Demonstration I - Hydrologic realtime monitoring  Realtime rainfall measurement  Realtime water level measurement  Realtime water quality measurement  Realtime AWS (Automated Weather Station)  Realtime evaporation, soil moisture measurement  Realtime wireless watershed webcam  Wireless Internet + PDA + WEB  Demonstration II - A compact wireless internet realtime datalogger  Demonstration III - Realtime coastal observation network  Wave and Tide measurement  AWS measurement  Coastal water environmental measurement  Lantern operation measurement
