| Regional variability of raindrop size distribution (DSD) along the Equator
was investigated through a network of Parsivel disdrometers in Indonesia. The
disdrometers were installed at Kototabang (KT; 100.32° E,
0.20° S), Pontianak (PT; 109.37° E, 0.00° S), Manado
(MN; 124.92° E, 1.55° N) and Biak (BK; 136.10° E,
1.18° S). It was found that the DSD at PT has more large drops than
at the other three sites. The DSDs at the four sites are influenced by both oceanic
and continental systems, and majority of the data matched the maritime-like
DSD that was reported in a previous study. Continental-like DSDs were somewhat
dominant at PT and KT. Regional variability of DSD is closely related to the
variability of topography, mesoscale convective system propagation and
horizontal scale of landmass. Different DSDs at different sites led to
different Z–R relationships in which the radar reflectivity at PT was
much larger than at other sites, at the same rainfall rate. |
