Evaluation of the Microphysical Assumptions within GPM-DPR Using Ground-Based Observations of Rain and Snow

The Global Precipitation Measurement Dual-Frequency Precipitation Radar (GPM-DPR) provides an opportunity to investigate hydrometeor properties. Here, an evaluation of the microphysical framework used within the GPM-DPR retrieval was undertaken using ground-based disdrometer measurements in both rai...
