Météo-France Rain radar Network
AERIS provides access to radar data from the Météo-France French operational network in mainland France and overseas. The radar data is made up of four products: AERIS manages the conversion […]

Megha-Tropiques
Megha-Tropiques is a space mission jointly managed by the space agencies CNES and ISRO. This mission is designed to study the convective systems of the atmosphere and more particularly the analysis of the water cycle through the transport and distribution of water vapor, the life cycle of convective systems and energy exchanges in the equatorial belt. The tropical zones are those where the most important energy exchanges occur: radiative exchanges, latent heat exchanges, transport of constituents and energy through dynamic processes. The challenge is therefore to increase knowledge of hydrological and energy processes in the tropics and their influence on the global circulation of the atmosphere, that the oceans, and climatic variations.
FROGS Database
The FROGS (Frequent Rain Observations on GridS) database consists of a collection of precipitation products from various origins (in-situ, reanalysis and satellite) with a homogeneous format, all set to the […]
