- W4379203138 abstract "Weather radars produce high spatial and temporal resolution observations of precipitation events. Over the years, weather radar operators have updated their radar networks to exploit the latest technological advancements. One of the most significant improvements in this matter was providing the radars with polarimetric capabilities, as this allows the radars to gather more detailed information about the precipitation targets’ shape, size, phase, and orientation. The radar research community has been working along with these advancements to develop robust algorithms that boost the radar data applications, such as radar quantitative precipitation estimation (QPE), rain microphysics analysis, nowcasting of precipitation or numerical weather prediction based on radar measurements. Some of these algorithms have been implemented in open-source toolboxes that aim to facilitate the processing and quality control of radar data produced by different radar systems. However, these open-source projects have not yet included a chain process tailored to the UK radar research context. This paper presents a TOolbox to process WEather Radar data in PYthon (Towerpy). Towerpy can read, process and display polarimetric radar data from different radar systems, but it is specially customised for data produced by the UK Met Office radar network. Towerpy is built upon robust algorithms that cover various aspects of the radar data quality control (e.g., calibration of radar measurements, identification of non-meteorological echoes, attenuation correction, among others) and the computation of radar rainfall rates. Additionally, a radar processing chain was devised using the Towerpy modules to produce radar rainfall estimates. Raw polarimetric radar measurements collected by the UK Met Office radar network throughout the UK’s wettest day on record were used as input for this processing chain. The results confirm that Towerpy is a powerful radar research tool and demonstrate its ability to generate functional radar QPE that can be used to improve operational radar rainfall products." @default.
