Short summary
The study assesses the Global Precipitation Climatology Centre (GPCC) and Global Precipitation Climatology Project (GPCP) precipitation products by estimating hydrological drought recovery time (DRT) using satellite gravimetry data, Jet Propulsion Laboratory mass concentration solution (JPL mascon), and Global Gravity-based Groundwater Project (G3P) terrestrial water storage (TWS) products. The findings reveal that DRTs from GPCC and GPCP are comparable, and JPL mascon shows longer DRT, while G3P demonstrates greater consistency. These results contribute to a deeper understanding of precipitation and water storage dynamics and are essential for meteorological and hydrological research.
