Mass-Conserving Remapping of Radar Data onto Two-Dimensional Cartesian Coordinates for Hydrologic Applications
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ecent upgrades to operational radar-rainfall products in terms of quality and resolution call for reexamination of the factors that contribute to the uncertainty of radar-rainfall estimation. Remapping or regridding of ...
Comparison of Two Raindrop Size Distribution Retrieval Algorithms for X-Band Dual Polarization Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In this study the authors evaluate two algorithms, the so-called beta (?) and constrained methods, proposed for retrieving the governing parameters of the ?normalized? gamma drop size distribution (DSD) from dual-polarization ...
Statistical Analysis of Radar Rainfall Error Propagation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The prediction uncertainty of a hydrologic model is closely related to model formulation and the uncertainties in model parameters and inputs. Currently, the foremost challenges concern not only whether hydrologic model ...
An Experimental Study of Small-Scale Variability of Radar Reflectivity Using Disdrometer Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Analysis of data collected by four disdrometers deployed in a 1-km2 area is presented with the intent of quantifying the spatial variability of radar reflectivity at small spatial scales. Spatial variability of radar ...
