Identifying Individual Rain Events with a Dense Disdrometer Network

Table 1

Summary data associated with exploring the rain event definition parameter space. Values shown indicate percentage of parameters characterized as “plausible,” as described in the text. MIT range 1 is associated with MIT values starting at 1 minute, incrementing by 1 minute, and ending at 90 minutes. MIT range 2 is associated with MIT values starting at 5 minutes, incrementing by 5 minutes, and ending at 12 hours.

Data set	All data	MIT range 1	MIT range 2
Coarsened	17.8%	0.3%	29.0%
Disdrometer	5.7%	0.5%	9.0%
