| Zusammenfassung |
| The authors present results of a comparative analysis of rainfall data from
several ground-based instruments. The instruments include two vertically
pointing Doppler radars, S-band and X-band, an optical disdrometer, and a
tipping-bucket rain gauge. All instruments were collocated at the Iowa City
Municipal Airport in Iowa City, Iowa, for a period of several months. The
authors used the rainfall data derived from the four instruments to first
study the temporal variability and scaling characteristics of rainfall and
subsequently assess the instrumental effects on these derived properties.
The results revealed obvious correspondence between the ground and remote
sensors, which indicates the significance of the instrumental effect on the
derived properties. |
