Accuracy of the CMORPH satellite-rainfall product over Lake Tana Basin in eastern Africa por Haile, Alemseged Tamiru, Yan, F., Habib, E.

“…The bias is decomposed into different components, hit, missed, and false, in order to gain additional insight into the possible sources of systematic deviations in CMORPH. Overall, CMORPH was able to capture the seasonal and spatial patterns of rainfall over the basin, but with varying degrees of accuracy that depend on topography, latitude and lake-versus-land conditions within the basin. …”
