Influence of the Subgrid Variability of the Raindrop Size Distribution on Radar Rainfall Estimators

This work aims at quantifying the variability of the parameters of the power laws used for rain-rate estimation from radar data, on the basis of raindrop size distribution measurements over a typical weather radar pixel. Power laws between the rain rate an ...

Polarimetric X-band weather radar measurements in the tropics: radome and rain attenuation correction

Marc Schneebeli Zeugin

A polarimetric X-band radar has been deployed during one month (April 2011) for a field campaign in Fortaleza, Brazil, together with three additional laser disdrometers. The disdrometers are capable of measuring the raindrop size distributions (DSDs), henc ...

Stochastic Space–Time Disaggregation of Rainfall into DSD fields

Alexis Berne, Marc Schleiss

A stochastic method to disaggregate rain rate fields into drop size distribution (DSD) fields is proposed. It is based on a previously presented DSD simulator that has been modified to take into account prescribed block-averaged rain rate values at a coars ...

Stochastic space-time disaggregation of rainfall into DSD fields

Alexis Berne, Marc Schleiss

A stochastic method to disaggregate rainfall fields into DSD fields is proposed. It is based on a previously presented DSD simulator that has been modified in order to take into account imposed mean values provided at the coarser scale. The integral quanti ...

Scaling analysis of the variability of the rain drop size distribution at small scale

Alexis Berne, Marc Schleiss, Joël Jaffrain

Like precipitation, the raindrop size distribution (DSD) is strongly variable in space and time. Understanding this variability is important for quantifying and minimizing some of the uncertainties in radar measurements and their interpretation in terms of ...

High-resolution vertical profiles of polarimetric X-band weather radar observables during snowfall in the Swiss Alps

Michael Lehning, Alexis Berne, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin

An X-band polarimetric radar was deployed in the eastern Swiss Alps at an altitude of 2133 m. Radar measurements were complemented with several weather stations deployed in an altitude range from 1500 to 3100 m as well as with a fixed GPS ground station th ...

X-band polarimetric radar data set of alpine precipitation

Alexis Berne, Jacopo Grazioli, Marc Schneebeli Zeugin, Danny Eddy Scipion Castillo

A mobile X-band dual-polarization Doppler radar (MXPOL), belonging to the Environmental Remote Sensing Laboratory (LTE) of EPFL (Lausanne) was deployed in Davos (Switzerland) at an altitude of 213 m from September 2009 to July 2011, in order to observe and ...
