| description abstract | A simple empirical procedure for determining freezing levels with polarimetric radar measurements is described. The algorithm takes advantage of the strong melting-layer signatures and the redundancy provided by the suite of polarimetric radar measurements?in particular, radar reflectivity, linear depolarization ratio, and cross-correlation coefficient. Freezing-level designations can be made with all volumetric scanning strategies. Application to uniform (stratiform) precipitation within 60 km of the radar and with brightband reflectivity maxima of greater than 25 dBZ suggests an accuracy of 100?200 m. | |
