Abstract :
In this paper, the relationship between the rainfall rate statistics from the Doppler radar system and the one minute integration time rain distributions from a rain gauge network was studied. With these investigations, a simple framework of converting the radar rainfall rate statistics to its equivalent one minute rain rates was suggested. The prediction results were evaluated, and good agreement with the measured data was observed
