  abstract = {{T}his study assesses the performance of the new {G}lobal {P}recipitation {M}easurement ({GPM})-based satellite precipitation estimates ({SPE}s) datasets in the {B}razilian {C}entral {P}lateau and compares it with the previous {T}ropical {R}ainfall {M}easurement {M}ission ({TRMM})-era datasets. {T}o do so, the {I}ntegrated {M}ulti-satellit{E} {R}etrievals for {GPM} ({IMERG})-v5 and the {G}lobal {S}atellite {M}apping of {P}recipitation ({GSM}a{P})-v7 were evaluated at their original 0.1 degrees spatial resolution and for a 0.25 degrees grid for comparison with {TRMM} {M}ulti-satellite {P}recipitation {A}nalysis ({TMPA}). {T}he assessment was made on an annual, monthly, and daily basis for both wet and dry seasons. {O}verall, {IMERG} presents the best annual and monthly results. {I}n both time steps, {IMERG}'s precipitation estimations present bias with lower magnitudes and smaller root-mean-square error. {H}owever, {GSM}a{P} performs slightly better for the daily time step based on categorical and quantitative statistical analysis. {B}oth {IMERG} and {GSM}a{P} estimates are seasonally influenced, with the highest difficulty in estimating precipitation occurring during the dry season. {A}dditionally, the study indicates that {GPM}-based {SPE}s products are capable of continuing {TRMM}-based precipitation monitoring with similar or even better accuracy than obtained previously with the widely used {TMPA} product.},
