Zusammenfassung |
Rain cells are structures which represent an important component of
convective precipitation and a study of their properties represents
a necessary step both towards improved stochastic models of
small-scale precipitation and for the verification of deterministic
high resolution local-area models. The case of intense convective
precipitation in the tropics has been analysed in a recent study (von Hardenberg et al., 2003). Here we extend the analysis to mid-latitudes and we
present results on the structure of convective rain cells observed
by radar measurements in Italy. In particular we consider the
average shape of precipitation cells and its dependence on radar
resolution and the distributions of ellipticities. |
