DOI: 10.1029/2023gl103281
Abstract: Raindrops are usually parameterized by oblate spheroids with axis ratios (ARs) determined from projected images. However, the adequacy of representing the 3‐Dimensional (3D) nature of raindrops with their 2‐Dimensional (2D) shadows remains an open question.… read more here.

DOI: 10.5194/amt-11-1377-2018
Abstract: We report on fall speed measurements of raindrops in light-to-heavy rain events from two climatically different regimes (Greeley, Colorado, and Huntsville, Alabama) using the high-resolution (50 µm) Meteorological Particle Spectrometer (MPS) and a third-generation (170 µm resolution) 2-D… read more here.
