Tropical 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 کاملRain, Rain, Go Away, Come Again Another Day. Weather Preferences of Summer Tourists in Mountain Environments
Weather and climate are important factors for travel decision-making and overall tourist satisfaction. As central motivators for destination choice, they directly and indirectly influence demand patterns and can be a resource and limitation for tourism at the same time. In this paper, results of an in-situ survey of mountain summer tourists (n = 733) in the Alps in Southern Germany are presente...
متن کاملRain rate and rain attenuation prediction for satellite communication in Ku and Ka bands over Nigeria
Rain rate and rain attenuation predictions are one of the vital steps to be considered when analyzing a microwave satellite communication links at the Ku and Ka bands. In this paper, tools for the prediction of rain rate and rain attenuation are presented in the form of contour maps for Nigeria using a massive rainfall data bank of 30 years which are taken from measurements made from the coast ...
متن کاملMonitoring of rain water storage in forests with satellite radar
The sensitivity of radar backscatter to the amount of intercepted rain in temperate deciduous forests is analysed to determine the feasibility of retrieval of this parameter from satellite radar data. A backscatter model is validated with X-band radar measurements of a single tree exposed to rain. A good agreement between simulation and measurements is observed and this demonstrates the ability...
