Characteristics of convective and stratiform radar targets measured using weather radar Skalky during the summer of 2010 - a case study

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This analysis concerns the identification and description of convective and stratiform radio-echo segments using volumetric data measured using weather radar Skalky during a nearly one-month period of summer 2010. Automated classification and additionalcalculations were performed at the CAPPI reference level of 2 km a.s. l. Differences in the distributions of the mean radar reflectivity between convective and stratiform vertical reflectivity profiles were determined. Furthermore, the height of the maximum mean reflectivity was determined. The differences in the maximum mean reflectivity and in the reflectivities at the adjacent CAPPI levels were calculated. Thereafter, the altitude of the maximum mean reflectivity was compared with the estimated height of the 0 °C isotherm as an indicator of the bright band, which is a relatively reliable indication of stratiform precipitation. All of the analysed characteristics are compared for both cloud regimes based on the retrieved radar data.
