GPM era, we developed the synthetic GPM simulator that integrates in situ observations, a CSRM, and satellite simulators to synergistically support development of the GPM precipitation algorithms. First, CSRM-simulated precipitation systems are evaluated and constrained by the in situ observations from various field campaigns. Second, GPM-observable signals are simulated from the CSRM-simulated geophysical parameters through the unified satellite simulators (Fig. 1). In this way, a bottom-up approach is taken to “upscale” in situ point measurements to CSRM scales (1 km), then to the sensor footprint scales (5–30 km), and finally to the satellite swath scales (125–1,500 km).
