Evaluation of radar reflectivity-rainfall rate, Z-R relationships during a stratiform event in the tropics

Abstract—A number of factors can certainly affect the accuracy of Z-R relationships; including poor hardware calibration. The inaccuracy might also be due to the differences between the ground-level precipitation and the precipitation aloft since a radar does not scan all the way down except at clos...
