description abstract | Data of vertically pointing microrain radars (MRRs), located at various sites around the Baltic Sea, were analyzed for a period of several years. From the Doppler spectra profiles of drop size distributions (DSDs) are obtained. A significant height dependence of the shape of the DSDs?and thus of the Z?R relations?is observed at high rain rates. This implies, for the considered sites, that ground-based Z?R relations lead to underestimation of high rain rates by weather radars. | |
