Radar Reflectivity Relations

Radar Reflectivity Relations is a mathematical framework that relates radar-measured reflectivity to precipitation intensity by establishing empirical or physical relationships between the returned radar signal and hydrometeor properties such as drop size distribution and rainfall rate.
