Highlights

Global monthly mean precipitation rate anomalies (70S–70N), as observed by conically-scanning passive microwave radiometer constellation, with corresponding uncertainties. Period: 1987-2020; 7-month running-mean. Shaded colors denote the uncertainty of each satellite product.

Figure: Regionally averaged rates in all regions and in three depth zones: the twilight zone (top row, Ez to Ez + 500 m), the midnight zone (middle row, Ez + 500 m to 3 km below sea level), and the abyss (bottom row, 3 km below sea level to the bottom). The bounds of the color axes are the same for each row, each being an order of magnitude smaller than that of the row above.
