DIFFERENTIAL REFLECTIVITY (ZDR) - A ratio of the reflected horizontal and vertical power returns ZDR proportional to: Horizontal Power Returned Vertical Power Returned - Depends on the median shape and size of hydrometeors
DIFFERENTIAL REFLECTIVITY (ZDR) Examples of different ZDR values ZDR > 0 Represents horizontally-oriented mean profile of hydrometeor E v E h ZDR < 0 Represents vertically-oriented mean profile of hydrometeor E V E h ZDR ~ 0 Represents nearly circular mean profile of hydrometeor E V E V
