Abstract
The comparison of precipitation structure in the TEPPS and EPIC domains in regards to convective variability across the East Pacific is discussed. The data sets collected during two field programs are similar where both experiments were focused in their respective ITCZ locations for approximately three weeks. The radar data were quality controlled (QC'd) using an algorithm from the NASA Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission (TRMM) Office to remove spurious echos. The results show that the EPIC environment was more conducive to deep and intense convection compared to TEPPS.
