What we added with V04:
• GMI radiances were resolution-enhanced using regression-based filters; using all GMI channels.
• Hogan & Battaglia model for multiple-scattering in radar simulations was utilized where needed.
(note: V04 described in Grecu et al. 2016 JAOT article)

Combined Algorithm V5 Updates and TRMM V8
• Changed initial assumptions on PSD’s and ensemble generation.
Revised modeling of path-integrated attenuation in response to non-uniform beamfilling effects.
In process:
• Nonspherical ice particle scattering tables.
• s0 – emissivity surface parameterization.
• Have begun interfacing Combined with TRMM input.

Final Remarks:
• Combined Algorithm V5 should be ready fordelivery 1 month after final Radar Algorithm is delivered.
• In short term, examine relationships between PSD/non-uniform beamfilling assumptions and attenuation correction.
• Non-uniform beamfilling, multiple scattering, ice/mixed-phase particle properties are currently parameterized, but comprehensive descriptions will require longer-term efforts.
• Will work with radiometer team on high latitude estimates. Generate databases for algorithm.

Issues with V04:
• estimates over land, particularly in climatologicallyconvective regions, were overestimated.
• overestimation was made even greater by the DPR calibration change.
