An investigation of a voxel-based atmospheric pressure and temperature model

Peng Sun et al.

Summary: Atmospheric pressure, temperature, and zenith wet delay (ZWD) are important meteorological parameters for GNSS data processing and meteorology. Empirical models are widely used for prediction, but may be inaccurate due to height differences between sites and reference levels. The PVoxel model improves accuracy by providing voxel-based atmospheric pressure and temperature predictions.

Microwave radiometer, sun-photometer and GNSS multi-comparison of integrated water vapor in Southwestern Europe

Javier Vaquero-Martinez et al.

Summary: This study compares integrated water vapor (IWV) data recorded from microwave radiometer (MWR) and sun-photometer (SP) with global navigation satellite system (GNSS) IWV as reference in five mid-latitude sites of Portugal and Spain (2003-2021). Both instruments show very high correlation (R2 between 0.94 and 0.98), but MWR exhibits a wet bias while SP exhibits a dry bias. Mean bias error (MBE) and standard deviation (SD) increase with IWV. The dependence on solar zenith angle (SZA) is also studied, showing slightly larger discrepancies for MWR compared to SP for high SZA values.

Evaluating Precipitable Water Vapor Products From Fengyun-4A Meteorological Satellite Using Radiosonde, GNSS, and ERA5 Data

Jingshu Tan et al.

Summary: This study provided a comprehensive evaluation of precipitable water vapor (PWV) products from China's geostationary meteorological satellite Fengyun-4A (FY-4A). The results showed good agreement between FY-4A PWV data and radiosonde/GNSS measurements, but an underestimation of water vapor during humid conditions. The spatial variability of FY-4A PWV was found to be correlated with latitude and season.

Hybrid Deep-Learning Network for Rapid On-Site Peak Ground Velocity Prediction

Jingbao Zhu et al.

Summary: Accurately predicting on-site peak ground velocity (PGV) is crucial for earthquake hazard mitigation. In this study, a hybrid deep-learning network (HybridNet) is constructed to predict PGV using a combination of CNN and RNN feature extraction blocks. The HybridNet model shows better performance than baseline models in terms of error deviation, mean absolute error, and coefficient of determination for PGV prediction. Additionally, the predicted PGV can be used to estimate the potential damage zone (PDZ) by interpolating values at different stations, which aligns well with observed results shortly after the arrival of P-wave.
