RADAR sensing of precipitation
RADAR Sensing of Precipitation
Precipitation radars typically operate between 2 and 8 GHz (wavelength: 15 to 4 cm). There are also cloud radars like the one on CloudSat that operate around 94 GHz (wavelength: 3 mm).
The general objective of precipitation radars is to measure the backscattered power and then relate it to the rain rate. Doing so also requires determining the particle size distribution and the fall velocity.
Backscatter crosssection
Precipitation radars generally operate in the Rayleigh regime where the particle size is much smaller than the wavelength (a ................
