  • Abstract
    This work reports airborne Ku-band dual-polarization measurements of precipitation, acquired in three hurricanes during the Third Convection and Moisture Experiment (CAMEX-3) in 1998. Dual-polarization signatures in intense convective rain are seen at incidence angles as small as 20(degree) off nadir. Dual-polarization rain estimates using the specific propagation differential phase shift are compared with single-polarization rain profiling algorithm results.
