Comparison of Lake-Effect Snow Precipitation Rates Determined from Radar and Aircraft Measurements

Snow-particle size-mass relations derived from radar reflectivity and particle-size spectra obtained from Particle Measuring Systems (PMS) probes in nonconvective clouds predict greater masses for large particles than are indicated by most direct measurements of particle size versus mass. This may b...
