RISRaindrop Size Distribution Modeling from a Statistical Rain Parameter Relation and Its Application to the TRMM Precipitation Radar Rain Retrieval Algorithm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A generalized method is presented to derive a ?two scale? raindrop size distribution (DSD) model over a spatial or temporal domain in which a statistical rain parameter relation exists. The two-scale model is generally ...
Estimation of N*0 for the Two-Scale Gamma Raindrop Size Distribution Model and Its Statistical Properties at Several Locations in Asia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An automatic estimation method is developed to detect stepwise changes in the amplitude parameter of the normalized raindrop size distribution (DSD) N*0. To estimate N*0, it is also assumed that the variation of three DSD ...
Fine Structure of Vertical Motion in the Stratiform Precipitation Region Observed by a VHF Doppler Radar Installed in Sumatra, Indonesia
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Vertical motion W profiles in the stratiform precipitation region of mesoscale cloud clusters were investigated using wind data observed by VHF Doppler radar installed in western Sumatra Island (0.2°S, 100.32°E). A special ...
Multiscale Aspects of Convective Systems Associated with an Intraseasonal Oscillation over the Indonesian Maritime Continent
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Multiscale aspects of convective systems over the Indonesian Maritime Continent in the convectively active phase of an intraseasonal oscillation (ISO) during November 2002 are studied using Geostationary Meteorological ...
