Path-averaged rainfall estimation using a microwave link: uncertainty due to rainfall spatial variability
Alexis Berne, Remko Uijlenhoet, Hidde Leijnse & Alexis Berne
Microwave links offer the possibility to estimate (1) the latent and sensible heat
fluxes between land-surface and atmosphere, as well as (2) the path-averaged rainfall
intensity along the link when precipitation occurs. In the latter case, a power-law
relation is assumed between the specific attenuation k affecting the electro-magnetic
signal while propagating through precipitation and the rainfall intensity R, variable
of interest for many hydrological applications.
This work focuses on the influence of the spatial...
