DOI: 10.1175/jamc-d-23-0002.1
Abstract: Vertically-pointing Ka-band radar measurements are used to derive fall velocity – reflectivity factor (Vt=aZeb) relations for frozen hydrometeor populations of different habits during snowfall events observed at Oliktok Point, Alaska, and at the multidisciplinary drifting… read more here.
