Dynamic Differential Reflectivity Calibration Using Vertical Profiles in Rain and Snow

Alexis Berne, Alfonso Ferrone

The accuracy required for a correct interpretation of differential reflectivity (ZDR) is typically estimated to be between 0.1 and 0.2 dB. This is achieved through calibration, defined as the identification of the constant or time-varying offset to be subt ...
