Reconstruction of reflectivity vertical profiles and data quality control for C-band radar rainfall estimation

Microwave Doppler radars are considered a fairly established technique to retrieve rain rate fields from measured reflectivity volumes. However, in a complex orographic environment radar observations are affected by several impairments which should be carefully evaluated. Together with the enhanceme...
