| description abstract | In this paper, a simple objective method for recognizing and correcting the effects of the radar bright band in weather radar images is presented. The method is based upon the finding that area-average rainfall rate can be estimated from a fractional area of rainfall rate using a threshold value of 2 mm and excluding radar data contaminated by bright band. The observed area-average rainfall rate is much larger than that estimated for brightband cases. It is shown by case studies that the method is successful for frontal rainfall systems. A simple objective method of deriving a rainfall rate within arm affected by bright band is also proposed. | |
