Resumen:
We try to verify if GPS RO COSMIC data can beused to infer rainfall patterns.In particular, we would like to find out if theprecipitable water content (PW) calculated from GPSRO over South America (SA) reproduces at somesatisfactory degree the observed rainfall spatial andtemporal variabilities.The spatial and temporal rainfall and PW featuresover SA are here described and compared throughthe principal component analysis (PCA).
