Assessment of Ground‐Based X‐Band Radar Reflectivity: Attenuation Correction and its Comparison With Space‐Borne Radars Over the Western Ghats, India

Abstract Reflectivity measurements from X‐band ground‐based radar (GR) are assessed using observations from the Ku‐band space‐borne radars (SRs) onboard the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission and Global Precipitation Measurement satellites as a reference. The GR is at Mandhardev (18.04°N, 73.86°E)...
