Abstract

GPS-derived precipitable water vapor (PWV) 2-hourly time series for station PIMO are calculated from International GPS Service (IGS) archives of zenith path delay (ZPD). Monthly (September-December), seasonal and multi-annual means are shown to characterize PWV at PIMO, and during 1999-2006 PWV time series correlate with typhoons tracking within 50 km.
