Abstract: Types, degree of riming and size of snow particles comprising aggregates from snow bands were investigated. From the data obtained, the microphysical processes which control the precipitation intensity were elucidated. The ...

Abstract: We present three-dimensional (3D) displays of meteorological radar echoes. We made surfaces of precipitating clouds specified by some echo intensity (dBZ) by the marching cubes method, which is a high-resolution 3D surface ...

Abstract: A best-fit power-law relationship (Z = 427 R1.09) between 1-minute integrated averages of snowfall rate (R) and radar reflectivity factor (Z) was determined on the basis of observations made by using high sensitivity snow ...
