Product Creation
The conversion of weather radar reflectivity data into liquid water content is based on theoretical studies of dropsize distributions and empirical studies on the relationship between reflectivity factor and liquid water content (Greene and Clark 1972).
VIL is a radar-derived estimate of liquid water (exclusive of ice) that is computed at each grid point from the vertical profile of reflectivity using the following equation (Greene and Clark 1972):
,
where, Z is the radar reflectivity and h is the height expressed in meters. To exclude contributions from ice, if
, that term is set to 56 dBZ.
