Tapeer-BRAIN is a combined Microwave-Infrared accumulated precipitation estimation product implemented as a Megha-Tropiques Level 4 product. TAPEER stands for Tropical Amount of Precipitation with an Estimate of ERrors. It provides precipitation estimations and associated errors at the one-degree/one-day accumulated scale.
To characterize the evolution of the energy budget along the life cycle of convective systems, a MT level 4 product, called "MCS composite" has been developped.
The ATBD (Algorithm Theoritical Basis Document) of the TAPEER algorithm and MCS composite algorithm have been published under the Megha-Tropiques Technical Memorandum (MTTM) n°4 and n°5.

Last week we organized a 3-days workshop where 50-60 people from a
large number of research laboratories all over the country, actively
participated. 4 years after a first encounter in La Rochelle, the meeting has permitted to showcase the status of the science around Megha-Tropiques and its progress over the recent years. It also gather the team of scientists that will form the Megha-tropiques French Science team. The topics of interests span a wide domain, ranging from tropical meteorology and hydrology to microphyiscs and scaterring radiative transfer in the micro wave region ! The agenda of the discussions is available here and soon will also be the presentations. Beyond the actual science, the participants enjoyed being all together (the exceptionnal weather and the local gastronomy clearly contributed !). And it was nice wittnessing the french tropical science community gearing up for the use of its new tool.
All are now eagerly awaiting the data !
