Commonly used disdrometers tend not to accurately measure concentrations of very small drops in the raindrop size distribution (DSD), either through truncation of the DSD at the small-drop end or because of large uncertainties on these measurements. Recent ...

Objective Characterization of Rain Microphysics: Validating a Scheme Suitable for Weather and Climate Models

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

Improving the atmospheric component of hydrological models is beneficial for applications such as water resources assessment and hydropower operations. Within this goal, precise characterization of rain microphysics is key for climate and weather modeling, ...

Rainfall retrieval with commercial microwave links in Sao Paulo, Brazil

Timothy Hugh Raupach

In the last decade there has been a growing interest from the hydrometeorological community regarding rainfall estimation from commercial microwave link (CML) networks. Path-averaged rainfall intensities can be retrieved from the signal attenuation between ...

High-Resolution Simulation Study Exploring the Potential of Radars, Crowdsourced Personal Weather Stations, and Commercial Microwave Links to Monitor Small-Scale Urban Rainfall

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

Many applications in urban areas require high-resolution rainfall measurements. Typical operational weather radars can provide rainfall intensities at 1-km(2) grid cells every 5min. Opportunistic sensing with commercial microwave links yields path-averaged ...

Invariance of the Double-Moment Normalized Raindrop Size Distribution through 3D Spatial Displacement in Stratiform Rain

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

Double-moment normalization of the drop size distribution (DSD) summarizes the DSD in a compact way, using two of its statistical moments and a "generic'' double-moment normalized DSD function. Results are presented of an investigation into the invariance ...

Retrieval of the raindrop size distribution from polarimetric radar data using double-moment normalisation

Alexis Berne, Timothy Hugh Raupach

A new technique for estimating the raindrop size distribution (DSD) from polarimetric radar data is proposed. Two statistical moments of the DSD are estimated from polarimetric variables, and the DSD is reconstructed using a double-moment normalisation. Th ...

A high space-time resolution dataset linking meteorological forcing and hydro-sedimentary response in a mesoscale Mediterranean catchment (Auzon) of the Ardeche region, France

Alexis Berne, Jacopo Grazioli, Timothy Hugh Raupach

A comprehensive hydrometeorological dataset is presented spanning the period 1 January 201131 December 2014 to improve the understanding of the hydrological processes leading to flash floods and the relation between rainfall, runoff, erosion and sediment t ...

Universalmultifractal (UM) analysiswas used to investigate the scaling properties of snowfall at high temporal and spatial resolutions. Snowfall datawere recorded using a 2Dvideo disdrometer (2DVD) in the SwissAlps. Six 1-h-long periods of snowfall, half i ...

American Meteorological Society2017

The drop size distribution (DSD) describes the microstructure of liquid precipitation. The high variability of the DSD reflects the variety of microphysical processes controlling raindrop properties and affects the retrieval of rainfall. An analysis of the ...

American Meteorological Society2016

We present a new approach for spatial interpolation of experimental raindrop size distribution (DSD) spectra. The DSD is fundamental to the study and understanding of precipitation and its monitoring and modelling. It is measured insitu using disdrometers ...
