High-resolution Rainfall Rate and Dsd Estimation from X-band Polarimetric Radar Measurements
This study proposes investigation of new attenuation correction and microphysical retrieval methods for X-band polarimetric radar (XPOL). It will concentrate on exploring the dependence of the retrieval on raindrop size distribution variability, and its sensitivity with respect to the selection of oblateness-size relation (or axial ratio) and maximum diameter limit. Variations in the assumed fo...
متن کاملRadar–rain-gauge rainfall estimation for hydrological applications in small catchments
The accurate evaluation of the precipitation’s time–spatial structure is a critical step for rainfall–runoff modelling. Particularly for small catchments, the variability of rainfall can lead to mismatched results. Large errors in flow evaluation may occur during convective storms, responsible for most of the flash floods in small catchments in the Mediterranean area. During such events, we may...
متن کاملOptimal rain rate estimation algorithm for light and heavy rain using polarimetric measurements
In this paper, we propose an ameliorated physically-based rain rate estimation algorithm for semi-arid regions using the Rayleigh approximation. The proposed algorithm simultaneously uses the reflectivity and the specific differential phase to provide an accurate estimation for both small and large rain rates. In order to validate the proposed estimator, simulated polarimetric rain rate data ba...
متن کاملTropical Rain Classification and Estimation of Rain from Z-r (reflectivity-rain Rate) Relationships
A Z-R relation is derived using a data set which consists of nine rain events selected from Singapore’s drop size distribution. Rain events are separated into convective and stratiform types of rain using two methods: the Gamache-Houze method, a simple threshold technique, and the Atlas-Ulbrich method. In the Atlas-Ulbrich method, the variability of the rain integral parameters R, Z, Nw, D0 and...
متن کاملInvestigating rainfall estimation from radar measurements using neural networks
Rainfall observed on the ground is dependent on the four dimensional structure of precipitation aloft. Scanning radars can observe the four dimensional structure of precipitation. Neural network is a nonparametric method to represent the nonlinear relationship between radar measurements and rainfall rate. The relationship is derived directly from a dataset consisting of radar measurements and r...
