Note:
1.1.1 The main goal of the project is to install a GPM rain gauge and use it for the evaluation and calibration of IMERG precipitation data and use them in water resources research at PVAMU. The GPM rain gauge and IMERG precipitation datasets will be further used for hydrological model simulation and other water and climate-related applications. The project will be helpful to involve students in field measurements, data pre-processing, and application of the data for climate, hydrology, and watershed management-related research.
