Identifying Individual Rain Events with a Dense Disdrometer Network

Figure 2

Pictures of the disdrometer array. (a) shows an overhead view of the site (as of March 1, 2014). The shadows of the LPMs can be identified by looking closely. The picture is aligned to replicate the general geometrical alignment shown in Figure 1; detector “A” is in the upper-left. The white object in the center of the box formed by detectors K, L, S, and T is a 2-dimensional video disdrometer (not used in this study). (b) displays part of the array from ground level. The first detector in the foreground is detector “A,” with the 2-dimensional video disdrometer visible in the background. All detectors are mounted nominally 1.75 meters off of the ground.
