Radar Skalky Vertical Profile INDEX Mean Vertical Profile Algorithm

First Tests of Vertical Profile Usage

  • J. Kráčmar et al.
    Firs Steps Towards Quantitative Usage of Data from Czech Weather Radar Network (COST 75 Final Seminar contribution)

    • 2-months of volume data from radar Skalky
    • Mean vertical profiles of radar reflectivity calculation
    • First test of vertical profile correction

  • Results:

    • Vertical profile correction can bring improvement of radar precipitation estimates
    • It's important to have much more detailed knowledge about vertical profiles of radar reflectivity to fully employ possibilities of this correction
    • Combination with statistical correction
