Abstract
This article discusses the advancements in precipitation retrieval and applications from low-Earth-orbiting (LEO) satellite information. The workshop, sponsored by the Center for Hydrometeorology and Remote Sensing, brought together scientists and stakeholders to discuss the state of the science and users' needs for operational precipitation algorithms and products. The workshop covered various topics, including observation system requirements, algorithm development, and the uncertainties associated with satellite data. The recommendations from the workshop emphasized the need for collaboration, accurate calibration of sensors, and the development of robust algorithms to improve the accuracy of global precipitation products.
