| Zusammenfassung |
| We investigate the variability of the shape of the renormalized drop diameter instantaneous
distribution using of the third order central moment: the
skewness. Disdrometer data, collected at Darwin Australia, are
considered either as whole or as divided in convective and stratiform
precipitation intervals. We show that in all cases the distribution of the
skewness is strongly peaked around 0.64. This allows to identify a most
common distribution of renormalized drop diameters and two main variations,
one with larger and one with smaller skewness. The distributions shapes are
independent from the stratiform vs. convective classification. |
