“…The various meetings held between 2016 and October 2020 were a unique opportunity to explore many of the perspectives and challenges faced by the precipitation science community. The Special Issue in Remote Sensing on "Winter weather research in complex terrain during ICE-POP 2018" included some of the ICE-POP 2018 results that can be used to envision the future of the field [2][3][4][5]. Additional contributions in the "Precipitation and Water Cycle" Special Issue can also help unravel the many dimensions of precipitation science, including ground observations (rain gauges, ground radars, disdrometers), satellite estimates (radars, radiometers) and models, including numerical weather prediction (NWP) models, regional climate models (RCMs), global climate/circulation models (GCMs), Earth system models (ESMs) and variable resolution models (VRMs) [6][7][8][9][10][11].…”
