Abstract
During the last two NASA GPM Ground Validation field campaigns i.e. MC3E and GCPEx in USA and Canada correspondingly, the microwave radiometer ADMIRARI has been operating nearby two dual-frequency radars: the Ka/W band SACR from DOE ARM and the NASA's Ku/Ka band D3R. In addition, observations have currently been performed at the CSU CHILL National Radar Facility with the D3R Ku/Ka band radar synchronized with ADMIRARI for dedicated precipitation events. The present work put into consideration the first results from the aforementioned field campaigns with as a first attempt to combine these multi-sensor, multi-frequency, dual-polarized measurements in a common retrieval approach; limitations and pitfalls will be critically discussed as well. © 2013 AIP Publishing LLC.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
