英文摘要 | Precipitation is a crucial source of data in hydrological applications for water resources management. However, several regions suffer from limited data from a ground measurement network. Remotely sensed data may provide a viable alternative for these regions. This study aimed to evaluate six satellite products (GPM-F, CHIRPS, PERSIANN-CCS-CDR, GPM-L, GPM-E and PDIR-Now), with high spatio-temporal resolution, in the sub-Saharan regions of Morocco. Precipitation observation data from 33 rain-gauge stations were collected and used over the period from September 2000 to August 2020. The assessment was performed on three temporal scales (daily, monthly and annually) and two spatial scales (pixel and basin scales), using different quantitative and qualitative statistical indices. The results showed that the GPM-F product performed the best, according to the different evaluation metrics, up to events with 40 mm/day, while the GPM near real-time products (GPM-E and GPM-L) were better at detecting more intense rainfall events. At the daily time scale, GPM-E and GPM-L and, on monthly and annual scales, CHIRPS and PERSIANN-CCS-CDR, provided satisfactory precipitation estimates. Moreover, the altitude-based analysis revealed a bias increasing from low to high altitudes. The continental and mountainous basins showed the lowest performance compared to the other locations closer to the Atlantic Ocean. The evaluation based on the latitudes of rain gauges showed a decrease of bias towards the most arid zones. These results provide valuable information in a scarcely gauged and arid region, showing that GPM-F could be a valuable alternative to rain gauges. |
