Abstract

The purpose of the paper is to determine the influence of the VRP on the deviations between raingage and radar measurements at small temporal scales (less than one hour). The data set used has been recorded during the HIRE experiment. The differences between radar and raingage measurements, expressed by a mean relative bias, have been studied and compared to the equivalent one calculated from the observed VRP. At a time step of 5 minutes, the statistical distributions are similar and the VRP influence explains 36% of the deviation (60 % at a 30 minute time step).
