Beschreibung
This book explores the characteristics of raindrop spectra in terms of raindrop size distribution using 4 years of Joss-Waldvogel disdrometer data over Palau islands (7.33 N, 134.48 E) in Western Tropical Pacific ocean. The raindrop size distribution characteristics are studied in two seasons (easterly monsoon and westerly monsoon) using three (stratiform, deep convection, and shallow convection) rain types. The present study contributes to our understanding of seasonal variations of raindrop size distribution and its distribution during different rain types and also provides information which is useful for quantitative estimation of rainfall from weather radar observations.
