TRMM & GPM radar data can be used to identify areas where intense storms occur in the Tropics and midlatitudes based on the intensity & height of radar echoes. Climatology of peak thunderstorm intensity shows that most intense storms occurs over land: pmm.nasa.gov/articles/findin…

SAR Tutorial- How to Interpret Images Interpretation of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images is not always straightforward, in part because of the non-intuitive, side-looking geometry. NASA's ASF DAAC has put together some general rules of thumb: bit.ly/2EGtJZa
