It is well acknowledged that there are large uncertainties associated with radar-based
estimates of rainfall. Numerous sources of these errors are due to parameter estimation, the …

Flash floods may occur suddenly and be accompanied by other hazards such as landslides,
mud flows, damage to infrastructure and even death. In the UK such events are …

A new polarimetric melting layer detection algorithm (MLDA) is utilized to estimate the top
(melting level) and bottom boundaries of the melting layer and is tailored for operational …

Rain versus Snow in the Sierra Nevada, California: Comparing Doppler Profiling Radar and
Surface Observations of Melting Level in: Journal of Hydrometeorology Volume 9 Issue 2 (2008) …

A simple empirical procedure for determining freezing levels with polarimetric radar
measurements is described. The algorithm takes advantage of the strong melting-layer …

Dual‐frequency dual‐polarization radar observations of the melting of two ice populations in
a stratiform rainfall event are presented. The observed phenomenon occurs as a two‐layer …

This paper presents the implementation of a new version of the DARDAR (radar lidar)
classification derived from CloudSat and CALIPSO data. The resulting target classification …

Using 4 years of radar and lidar observations of layer clouds from the Chilbolton
Observatory in the UK, we show that almost all (95%) ice particles formed at temperatures> …

This paper presents a scheme that classifies reflectivity measurements from ground-based
volume scanning radar into convective and stratiform precipitation types. The algorithm …
