Storm-wide precipitation retrievals
The monitoring of precipitation is important for scientific purposes, such as the study of world weather patterns, the development of global precipitation maps, and the tracking of seasonal and diurnal variations in precipitation rates. Over time many observation methods have been used to estimate …

Raindrop Size Distribution Retrieval And Evaluation Using An S-band Radar Profiler
… are used to explore the vertical structure of precipitation cloud systems and to provide validation information for use in weather research. In this thesis, a theoretical radar rain-backscatter model was developed to simulate profiler Doppler spectra as a function of assumed rain parameters, of …

Tropical orographic rainfall regimes according to the tropical rainfall measuring mission
Observing precipitation in tropical regions of complex terrain is a challenging problem. While ground-based instrumentation including rain gauge networks and radar data offer some insights, the lack of spatially complete gauge networks and radar artifacts such as severe beam blockage lead to large …

Evaluation of triple-frequency radar retrieval of snowfall properties using coincident airborne in-situ observations during olympex
Particle scattering models have shown that aggregates and spherical particles occupy distinct regions of the Ku-Ka-W-band Dual-Frequency Ratio (DFR) plane. Furthermore, ground-based observations suggest that particle bulk density and characteristic size can be retrieved from the DFR plane. This is …
