Investigating the Inter-Relationships among Multiple Atmospheric Variables and Their Responses to Precipitation by Haobo Li, Suelynn Choy, Safoora Zaminpardaz, Brett Carter, Chayn Sun, Smrati Purwar, Hong Liang, Linqi Li, Xiaoming Wang

“…Typically, the variables of precipitable water vapor (<i>PWV</i>), zenith total delay (<i>ZTD</i>), temperature, pressure, wet-bulb temperature and dew-point temperature have closer cross-correlativity. Next, the responses of these variables to precipitation of different intensities were investigated and some precursory information of precipitation contained in these variables was revealed. …”
