GNSS tomography-based monitoring of hailstorm events

04-02-2026

Monitoring convective phenomena, such as heavy rainfall and hailstorms, is crucial for improving our understanding of processes occurring in the troposphere and for enhancing short-term weather forecasts. Traditional observational techniques, including radiosondes, often lack sufficient temporal and spatial resolution to effectively capture the rapid and localized changes that precede severe storms. One response to these limitations is the application of integrated GNSS tomography, which combines ground-based GNSS observations with radio occultation (RO) data.
