Some new relationships between observables of Doppler-polarimetric radar and rain parameters

This study establishes new relations between the microstructure and the dynamics of rain and Doppler-polarimetric parameters of the radar signal. The rain rate and intensity of turbulence in rain can be retrieved on this basis.
