Click for high resolution version. Quick Look images are made from TRMM Microwave Imager (TMI) data. Microwave brightness temperatures at 85.5 GHZ and at 37.0 GHZ are combined in the red, green and blue components (guns) of the images. For more information see "Negri, Andrew J., Robert F. Adler, Christian D. Kummerow, 1989: False-Color Display of Special Sensor Microwave/Imager (SSM/I) Data. Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society: Vol. 70, No. 2, pp. 146–151."

See the table below for the meaning of colors.

Water surfaces Dry atmosphere - blue moist atmosphere - dark blue	Land surfaces Snow Cover - white/grey land (non-desert) - grey/brown Deserts - light green
