Impact of Radar-Constrained Effective Drop-Shape Relations on Polarimetric Radar Quantitative Precipitation Estimation in Typhoons
Accurate typhoon quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE) with polarimetric radar depends on the assumed drop-shape relation (DSR), but typhoon DSRs derived from surface 2D video disdrometer (2DVD) observations may not represent elevated radar sampling volumes. To address this issue, we apply the established polarim...
