Proceedings ArticleDOI
Rain Radar Studies of Boundary Layer Dynamics at a Tropical Location
TL;DR: The observations with a micro rain radar (MRR), an FMCW radar, over Kolkata, have been utilized to study the drop size distribution and its relationship with radar reflectivity at Ka-band, indicating that the increased downdraft causes breakup of rain drops into smaller sizes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Three-Parameter Rain Drop Size Distributions From GPM Dual-Frequency Precipitation Radar Measurements: Techniques and Validation With Ground-Based Observations
TL;DR: In this article , a technique is proposed to estimate the DSD parameters from Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) dual-frequency products at Ku and Ka bands, which has been validated with ground-based disdrometer measurements obtained during the five-year period 2014-2018 over a tropical location, Kolkata.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Modeling of Fade-Slope for a Tropical Region and Time Series Prediction of Attenuation Based on Fade-Slope
Dalia Das,Animesh Maitra +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the probability density functions of measured fade slope for a tropical location are analyzed and found to be very close to Van De Kamp distribution model, and cumulative distributions of the measured fade slopes closely follow ITU-R model.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Characteristics of high velocity small drops in tropical convective rain
Thumree Sarkar,Animesh Maitra +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the characteristics of high velocity small drops (superterminal) are observed during different types of rain in a tropical region, Kolkata, India, using a Laser Precipitation Monitor (LPM).
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Identification and Estimation of Rainfall Intensity using Microwave Radiometric Measurements
TL;DR: A multi-frequency microwave radiometer is capable of continuous monitoring of the brightness temperature of atmospheric emissions which is capable to sensing water vapour, liquid water and their evolution towards forming rain structures with different microphysical properties as discussed by the authors.
