In the context of the GPM mission the proposed EGPM mission should satisfy as an integral and essential component of the GPM constellation the following specific requirements: Improve rainfall estimation accuracy; Enhance the detectability of light rain and snowfall, specifically over land, as appropriate for Northern Europe and Canada and in mid-latitude oceanic perturbations; Provide a significant contribution to the monitoring and the understanding of hazardous and flashflood producing storms along the Mediterranean coasts; Provide better observations in areas which are crucial for forecasts but have poor coverage (e.g. Mediterranean); Improve the forecast skill of global and regional NWP models through data assimilation of precipitation measurements; Provide near real-time as well as global data acquisition. 4-7 November 2003 1st International GPM GV Requirements Workshop Abingdon, U.K. 10 EGPM OBSERVATIONAL REQUIREMENTS Notes: (*) This also includes e.g. hail.

A) Abingdon, U.K. 32 S NOWFALL M EASUREMENT Precipitating snow both over land and over ocean has distinct signatures at the high-frequency window channels (89 and 157 GHz), as well as at the selected temperature-sounding channel pairs of the two oxygen bands at 54 and 118 GHz. Thus, in principle it can be detected (and possibly measured) by a space-borne radiometer employing such frequency combinations. In particular, the TB depressions and the relative behavior of the 89-157 GHz and 54-118 GHz frequencies carry information on whether snow is precipitating or aloft, on the vertical depth of the precipitating snow layer, on its amount, and on a possible concomitant presence of rain. As a consequence, these results help demonstrating the potential of all these frequencies for snowfall detection and (possibly) retrieval. 4-7 November 2003 1st International GPM GV Requirements Workshop Abingdon, U.K. 33 F ORWARD M ODELING U NCERTAINTIES Cloud Models Model microphysics Particle size distribution Particle shapes Ice contents and distributions Ice/water relationships Particle phase/transitions (melting phase?)

Tripoli] 4-7 November 2003 1st International GPM GV Requirements Workshop Abingdon, U.K. 36 A IRBORNE C AMPAIGN Objectives of an airborne campaign in Europe to support EGPM are (B. Bizzarri): To characterize the signatures of clouds and precipitation in the bands and channels selected for the EGPM MW radiometer, both baseline and optional, in respect of frontal rain, light rain and snowfall, in addition to convective rain considered to be enough characterized. To frame the EGPM-like observations in a wider context of more bands and channels, more polarizations and more viewing geometries, so as to assess the relative value of the selected EGPM bands/channels in comparison with a most complete observing system designed to contextually observe surface features, atmospheric temperature and humidity profiles, and cloud ice parametres. There is an opportunity to join an airborne campaign being studied in the framework of an effort to demonstrate the feasibility of precipitation observation through millimetre/submillimetre sounding from GEO. An existing instrument, the NOAA/ETL Polarimetric Scanning Radiometer (PSR/S) could optimally serve the purpose (A.
