摘要：
Using the observations from Global Precipitation Mission (GPM) core and constellation satellites, global precipitation is quantitatively described from the perspective of precipitation systems and their properties. This presentation will introduce the development of precipitation feature databases, and several scientific questions that have been tackled using this database, including the topics of global snow precipitation, thundersnow, extreme intensive convection, hail storms, extreme precipitation, and microphysical properties of ice particles at the top of convective cores. As more and more satellite observations become available, it is anticipated that the precipitation feature approach will help to address a large variety of scientific questions in the future. For anyone who is interested, all the current precipitation feature databases are freely open to public at: http://atmos.tamucc.edu/trmm/.
