Abstract Accurate long-term global precipitation estimates, especially for heavy rates, at fine spatial and temporal resolutions is vital a wide variety of climatological studies. Most the available operational estimation datasets provide either high resolution with short-term duration estimates or lower estimates. Furthermore, previous research has stressed that most satellite-based products show poor performance capturing extreme events resolution. Therefore, there need product reliably...

Abstract Accurate and timely precipitation estimates are critical for monitoring forecasting natural disasters such as floods. Despite having high-resolution satellite information, estimation from remotely sensed data still suffers methodological limitations. State-of-the-art deep learning algorithms, renowned their skill in accurate patterns within large complex datasets, appear well suited to the task of estimation, given ample amount data. In this study, effectiveness applying...

Abstract Little dispute surrounds the observed global temperature changes over past decades. As a result, there is widespread agreement that corresponding response in hydrologic cycle must exist. However, exactly how such manifests remains unsettled. Here we use unique recently developed long-term satellite-based record to assess precipitation across spatial scales. We show warm climate regions exhibit decreasing trends, while arid and polar increasing trends. At country scale, seems have...
